| description | Abstract In compliance with Article 43 of Regulation (EC) No 396/2005, EFSA received from the European Commission a mandate to conduct a prioritised review of the existing maximum residue levels (MRL) for dimethoate and omethoate, as a follow up of its ‘statement on the assessment of the risk to human health through the pesticide active substance dimethoate and its metabolites in food’. Based on the assessment of the available data, MRL proposals were derived and a consumer risk assessment was carried out. Some information required by the regulatory framework was missing and a possible acute risk to consumers was identified. Hence, the consumer risk assessment is considered indicative only, all MRL proposals derived by EFSA still require further consideration by risk managers and measures for reduction of the consumer exposure will also need to be considered. |
