| The content of the draft Regulation previously notified in G/SPS/N/EU/702 (12 December 2023) is partially changed.This new version of the proposed draft Regulation concerns the review of existing maximum residue levels (MRLs) for cypermethrins in certain food commodities. MRLs for these substances in certain commodities are lowered. Lower MRLs are set after deleting old uses which are not authorised anymore in the European Union. Additionally, corresponding MRLs are set separately for alpha-cypermethrin. This new version of the draft Regulation intends to set separate MRLs for the sum of cypermethrins and for alpha-cypermethrin, based on the latest EFSA Statement: EFSA Journal. 2025;23:e9386. Statement on MRLs for alpha-cypermethrin and screening of the existing EU MRLs for cypermethrin. https://doi.org/10.2903/j.efsa.2025.9386 |
