The Pesticides (Maximum Residue Levels in Crops, Food and Feeding Stuffs) (England and Wales) (Amendment) (No. 2) Regulations 2006 (revoked)

Regulations 2(3) and 3(3)

SCHEDULE 1U.K.ENTRIES SUBSTITUTED OR INSERTED IN SCHEDULE 2 TO THE PRINCIPAL REGULATIONS

Group to which food belongs	Groups include the following products	Benomyl/ Carbendazim	Carbofuran	Diquat	Thiophanate-methyl
UNITS: Maximum residue levels (MRLs) are expressed in milligrammes of residue per kilogramme of food.KEY:FOOTNOTES:
¹ Level at or about the limit of determination.
² Paddy or rough rice, husked rice and semi-milled or wholly milled 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.
⁴ These levels are for fresh raw cow's milk and fresh whole cream cow's milk expressed on the whole milk.
⁵ For preserved, concentrated or sweetened cow's milk; for raw milk and whole cream milk of other animal origin; and for butter, cheese or curd. Whether made from cow's milk or other milk or 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.
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 Scarole includes broad-leaf endive.
⁸ Broccoli includes calabrese.
⁹ The figure of 0.05 is the total MRL for Carbendazim and Thiophanate-methyl taken together and expressed as carbendazim.
