“…On 6 July 2018, the Codex Alimentarius Commission adopted new Codex maximum residue limits (CXLs) for oxamyl. 5 EFSA provided scientific support by assessing the proposed CXLs (EFSA, 2018 b). The CXLs that were found to be safe for European consumers, namely for melons and watermelons, were implemented by Regulation (EU) No 2019/552.…”

Statement on the risk assessment of maximum residue levels (MRLs) for oxamyl in view of consumer protection

In accordance with Article 43 of Regulation (EC) No 396/2005, the European Commission requested EFSA to perform a risk assessment of the existing maximum residues levels (MRLs) for oxamyl considering the new toxicological reference values. Additionally, if needed to ensure adequate consumer protection, lower limits of quantification (LOQs) than those currently established in the legislation should be proposed. EFSA performed various consumer exposure calculation scenarios, considering the risk assessment values as available for the existing uses of oxamyl and the lowering of LOQs for several plant and animal commodities as suggested by the European Union Reference Laboratories for Pesticide Residues (EURLs). Based on the results of the consumer exposure assessment calculated considering the risk assessment values for crops with authorised oxamyl uses and the existing EU MRLs at the LOQ for remaining commodities (scenario 1), chronic consumer intake concerns were identified for 34 diets. Acute exposure concerns were identified for a wide range of crops, including crops with currently authorised oxamyl uses: bananas, potatoes, melons, cucumbers, carrots, watermelons, tomatoes, courgettes, parsnips, salsifies and aubergines/eggplants. Under exposure calculation scenario 3, which considered lowering of all MRLs to the lowest analytically achievable limits of quantification, EFSA concludes that chronic consumer exposure concerns can still not be excluded. Similarly, acute consumer exposure concerns were identified for 16 commodities, including crops with known authorised uses: potatoes, melons, watermelons and tomatoes, even though for these crops a lower LOQ as proposed by the EURLs were considered. Further refinements of the calculated exposure at the current stage were not possible by EFSA, but EFSA identified a list of commodities for which a lower LOQ than routinely achievable is expected to significantly reduce the consumer exposure and for which a risk management decision is required.

“…EFSA based its assessment on the evaluation report submitted by the EMS the Netherlands (Netherlands, 2021a , b ) the renewal assessment report (RAR) and its revision (United Kingdom, 2016 , 2017 ) prepared under Regulation (EC) No 1107/2009, the conclusion on the peer review of the pesticide risk assessment of the active substance trifloxystrobin (EFSA, 2017 ), the Commission review report on trifloxystrobin (European Commission, 2018 ) as well as the conclusions from previous EFSA opinions and scientific reports on trifloxystrobin, including the reasoned opinion on the MRL review according to Article 12 of Regulation (EC) No 396/2005 (EFSA, 2014a , b , 2016a , b , 2018c , d , 2019b ).…”

“…EFSA updated the calculation with the relevant STMR values derived from the residue trials submitted in support of the present MRL applications and, in addition, with the STMRs derived in EFSA opinions issued after the MRL review (EFSA, 2014b , 2016a , 2018c , 2019b ). For those commodities where the CXLs have been implemented in the EU legislation after the MRL review, the respective STMR values as derived by the JMPR were used (FAO, 2004 , 2015 , 2017 ; EFSA, 2016b , 2018d ). The complete list of input values can be found in Appendix D.2 .…”

In accordance with Article 6 of Regulation (EC) No 396/2005, the applicant Bayer CropScience submitted two applications to the competent national authorities appointed in the United Kingdom and Greece to modify the existing maximum residue levels (MRLs) for the active substance trifloxystrobin in various crops and in sweet peppers/bell peppers, respectively. Moreover, in the application submitted to the United Kingdom, the applicant also included a request to evaluate the confirmatory data identified in the framework of the MRL review under Article 12 of Regulation (EC) No 396/2005 as not available. In the framework of the assessment process, these applications were re-allocated to the Netherlands. The data submitted in support of the requests were found to be sufficient to derive MRL proposals for sweet peppers/bell peppers, kales, escaroles, herbs and edible flowers, beans with pods, oat and chicory roots. Since the data gaps identified in the MRL review were not addressed, risk managers might consider lowering the tentative MRLs in passion fruits/maracujas and leafy brassica other than kales to the limit of quantification (LOQ), and the implementation of the Codex MRL (CXL) in the EU legislation for cucumbers and gherkins. The new intended use on witloof/Belgian endives was not adequately supported by residue data and therefore an MRL proposal cannot be derived. Adequate analytical methods for enforcement are available to control the residues of trifloxystrobin on the commodities under consideration. Based on the results of the risk assessment performed, considering the exposure to residues of trifloxystrobin and its metabolites CGA 321113 (apart for passion fruits), EFSA concluded that the short-term and long-term intake of residues resulting from the uses of trifloxystrobin under consideration is unlikely to present a risk to consumer health, except for escaroles. For the intended indoor use on escaroles, a risk from short-term intake cannot be excluded, hence a modification of the existing EU MRL is not proposed for this commodity. The consumer risk assessment shall be regarded as indicative and affected by uncertainties.
