(9) Chemistry covers assessment of the technical specification of the active substance, safeners and synergists in the product and the physico-chemical properties of the product.

(10) Toxicology covers assessment of the mammalian metabolism and toxicology of the active substance, safeners and synergists in the product and determination of the types of hazard to which the product can give rise.

(11) Operator exposure additionally covers exposure of other persons resulting from the product use.

(12) Consumer exposure covers exposure of consumers resulting from consumption of produce from treated crops, treated produce or products derived from either, including products from animals to which any such matter has been fed.

(15) Efficacy covers the assessment of whether a product consistently controls the target pest and whether the product adversely affects the treated crops, following crops or treated produce.

(16) Pre-submission meetings may be held at the request of the applicant prior to the submission of an application F9....

(1) The initial evaluation carried out in order to notify the applicant whether his or her application can proceed further.

F21(2) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

(3) [F22In relation to active substances, safeners or synergists,] a full data package comprises the complete dossier (the information referred to in paragraphs 1 and 2 of Article 8 of Regulation 1107/2009) to support one or more representative use of one product. [F23In relation to basic substances, a full data package comprises the complete dossier (the information referred to in Article 23(3) of Regulation 1107/2009) to support one or more uses of the basic substance.] Where a data package also contains a large number of extra study reports submitted to refine risk assessments, to characterise metabolites or to support additional uses of the product [F24or basic substance], these studies will be treated as an additional partial data package. See also note (4).

(4) The size of a partial data package is banded as a proportion of a full data package. The proportion is estimated on the basis of the amount of time required to evaluate the data and to conduct the necessary risk assessments. Applicants will be notified of the appropriate Band prior to an evaluation taking place. Partial data packages include one or more of the following—

(a)additional data over and above a ‘standard’ core dossier for example situations where there are significantly more metabolites, or very large novel studies to be evaluated;

(b)additional study submissions during evaluation required to clarify the initial dossier;

F25(c). . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

(d)[F26 in relation to active substances, safeners or synergists,] data to support the extension of the approval of an active substance, safener or synergist under Regulation 1107/2009 once the initial approval period has expired or to change the conditions of approval during the approval period;

F27(e). . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

(f)[F28in relation to active substances, safeners or synergists,] large data packages in one or more areas of the risk assessment that have been submitted in support of product related applications (e.g. re-registration and new product applications under Regulation 1107/2009) that significantly exceed the size for which the standard fees specified in the product-related application fees table (paragraph 1, items 9a-g above) are payable.

(g)[F28in relation to active substances, safeners or synergists,] additional studies submitted to support an adverse data review.

[F29(h)in relation to basic substances, resubmissions (for example where the previous application for approval under Regulation 1107/2009 has been unsuccessful and a new application is made in an attempt to address all the concerns raised from that earlier submission);

(i)in relation to basic substances, data to support a change to the conditions of approval of the basic substance.]

[F30The evaluation of scientific peer reviewed open literature on the active substance or basic substance and its relevant metabolites will be treated as a partial data package.]

Impact Assessments

Impact Assessments generally accompany all UK Government interventions of a regulatory nature that affect the private sector, civil society organisations and public services. They apply regardless of whether the regulation originates from a domestic or international source and can accompany primary (Acts etc) and secondary legislation (SIs). An Impact Assessment allows those with an interest in the policy area to understand:

  • Why the government is proposing to intervene;
  • The main options the government is considering, and which one is preferred;
  • How and to what extent new policies may impact on them; and,
  • The estimated costs and benefits of proposed measures.
