UNITS:

Maximum residue levels (MRLs) are expressed in milligrammes of residue per kilogramme of food.

KEY:

* Level at or about the limit of determination.

FOOTNOTES:

(1)

Paddy or rough rice, husked rice and semi milled or wholly milled rice.

(2)

Other cereals do not include rice.

(3)
  • Levels are measured on fat, except in the case of foods with a fat content of 10% or less by weight.

  • In these cases the residue is related to the total weight of the boned foodstuff and the MRL is one tenth of the value given in the table, but must be no less than 0.01 mg/kg. This footnote does not apply where the MRL is marked with “*”.

(4)

These levels are for fresh raw cow’s milk and fresh whole cream cow’s milk expressed on the whole milk. A fat content of 4% by weight should be taken as a basis. This footnote does not apply where the MRL is marked with “*”.

(5)

For preserved, concentrated or sweetened cow’s milk; for raw milk and whole cream milk of another animal origin; and for butter, cheese or curd,

whether made from cow’s milk or other milk of a combination, the following levels apply:

  • if the fat content is less than 2% by weight, the MRL is taken as half that set for raw milk and whole cream milk;

  • if the fat content is 2% or more by weight, the MRL is expressed in mg/kg of fat and is set at 25 times that set for raw milk and whole cream milk.

This footnote does not apply where the MRL is marked with “*”.

(6)

Birds' eggs in shell (other than eggs for hatching) and whole egg products and egg yolk products (whether fresh, dried or otherwise prepared).

(7)

For eggs and egg products with a fat content higher than 10%, the maximum level is expressed in mg/kg fat. In this case, the MRL is 10 times higher than the MRL for fresh eggs. This footnote does not apply where the MRL is marked with “*”.

(8)

All meat except liver and kidney.

(9)

Liver and kidney.

Explanatory Note

(This note is not part of the Regulations)

These Regulations, which extend to Scotland only, further amend the provisions of the Pesticides (Maximum Residue Levels in Crops, Food and Feeding Stuffs) (Scotland) Regulations 2000 (“the principal Regulations”).

The Regulations implement Commission Directive 2003/113/EC (O.J. L 324, 11.12.03, p.24) as amended by Corrigendum to Commission Directive 2003/113/EC O.J. No. L 104, 8.4.04, p.135 (which superceded Corrigendum to Commission Directive 2003/113/EC, O.J. No. L 98, 2.4.04, p.61) and Commission Directive 2004/2/EC (O.J. No. L 14, 21.1.04, p.10) as amended by Corrigendum to Commission Directive 2004/2/EC (O.J. No. L 28, 31.1.04, p.30).

The Regulations substitute the maximum residue level for residues of the pesticide Benalaxyl on lettuce (regulation 2(4)(a)) to implement Commission Directive 2000/42/EC (O.J. No. L 158, 30.6.00, p.51).

With effect from 1st August 2004 new maximum residue levels are set for residues of the pesticide Fenamiphos (regulation 2(2) and 2(4)(b) and Schedule 1) to implement Commission Directive 2004/2/EC, as amended.

With effect from 4th June 2005 new maximum residue levels are set for residues of the pesticides Cyazofamid, 2,4 – DB, Ethoxysulfuron, Foramsulfuron, Imazamox, Linuron, Oxadiargyl, Oxasulfuron and Pendimethalin (regulation 2(3) and 2(4)(c) and Schedule 1) to implement Commission Directive 2003/113/EC, as amended.

The Regulations also update the definition of “Residue Directives” in the principal Regulations (by substituting Schedule 5 to the principal Regulations) to incorporate Commission Directive 2003/113/EC, Corrigenda to Commission Directive 2003/113/EC, Commission Directive 2004/2/EC and Corrigendum to Commission Directive 2004/2/EC (regulation 2(5) and Schedule 2).

Regulation 3 makes consequential revocations.

No Regulatory Impact Assessment has been produced in relation to these Regulations.
