Recent Published Commission Regulations under Regulation 396/2005

At present the time between agreement at the Standing Committee and publication of Commission Regulations in the Official Journal is around 5 months. From experience to date, these Regulations come into force on publication (for raised levels) or around 6 months later (if they include any lowered levels).

When new MRLs are agreed we look at all product approvals containing these active substances. Any approvals that would result in residues in excess of the new MRLs may be revoked or amended. This will ensure growers and suppliers do not put produce containing residues in excess of the MRL into circulation.

The below proposals have been agreed and became law from the applicable date.
