Abstract
- In accordance with Article 6 of Regulation (EC) No 396/2005, the applicant Syngenta Crop Protection AG submitted a request to the competent national authority in Belgium to set an import tolerance for the active substance metalaxyl‐M in oil palms fruits and peppercorn (black, green and white). The data submitted in support of the request were found to be sufficient to derive MRL proposals for oil palms fruits and peppercorn. Adequate analytical methods for enforcement are available to control the residues of metalaxyl‐M in the commodities under consideration at the validated limit of quantification (LOQ) of 0.01 mg/kg. Based on the risk assessment results, EFSA concluded that the short‐term and long‐term intake of residues resulting from the use of metalaxyl‐M according to the authorised agricultural practices is unlikely to present a risk to consumer health.
