Regulation (EU) 2019/1176 amending Regulation (EC) No 396/2005 was published in the OJEU on 11/07/19.
These Regulations modify the MRLs for the following residues: 2,5-dichlorobenzoic acid methyl ester,
mandipropamide and
profoxydim.
For 2,5-dichlorobenzoic acid methyl ester, EFSA concluded that there should be no residues in any plant or animal product, as its unique and restricted use as a pesticide on wine grapes after grafting should not lead to a significant concentration in wine grapes. The default MRL of 0.01 mg/kg was set on all matrices.
The residue definition of mandipropamide has been changed to mandipropamide (regardless of the ratio between the constituent isomers). MRLs have been increased for beets, radishes, cauliflower, Brussels sprouts, endives, peas (shelled), artichokes and cocoa beans.
For profoxydim, MRLs have been lowered for all food categories.
This regulation is applicable as of 31/01/2020.
