Modification of the existing maximum residue level (MRL) for fluoxastrobin in shallots

摘要

In accordance with Article 6 of Regulation (EC) No 396/2005, the evaluating Member State (EMS), United Kingdom, received an application from Bayer CropScience S.A.S. to modify the existing maximum residue level (MRL) for the active substance fluoxastrobin in shallots. In order to accommodate for the intended use of fluoxastrobin, the United Kingdom proposed to set the MRL at 0.04 mg/kg. According to EFSA the data are sufficient to derive a MRL proposal of 0.04 mg/kg for the intended use on shallots in northern Europe. Adequate analytical enforcement methods are available to control the residues of fluoxastrobin and its Z‐isomer in the commodity under consideration. Based on the risk assessment results, EFSA concludes that the proposed use of fluoxastrobin on shallots will not result in a consumer exposure exceeding the toxicological reference values and therefore is unlikely to pose a consumer health risk.
