COMMISSION REGULATION (EU) 2021/1804
of 12 October 2021
amending Annex II to Regulation (EC) No 396/2005 of the European Parliament and of the Council as regards the maximum residue level for bentazone in peas with pods
(Text with EEA relevance)
THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Regulation (EC) No 396/2005 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 23 February 2005 on maximum residue levels of pesticides in or on food and feed of plant and animal origin and amending Council Directive 91/414/EEC (1), and in particular Article 14(1)(a) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) |
Maximum residue levels (MRLs) for bentazone were set in Annex II to Regulation (EC) No 396/2005. |
(2) |
In the context of a procedure for the authorisation of the use of a plant protection product containing the active substance bentazone on peas with pods, an application was submitted in accordance with Article 6(1) of Regulation (EC) No 396/2005 for modification of the existing MRL. |
(3) |
In accordance with Article 8 of Regulation (EC) No 396/2005, the application was evaluated by the Member State concerned and the evaluation report was forwarded to the Commission. |
(4) |
The European Food Safety Authority (‘the Authority’) assessed the application and the evaluation report, examining in particular the risks to the consumer and, where relevant, to animals and gave a reasoned opinion on the proposed MRL (2). It forwarded that opinion to the applicant, the Commission and the Member States, and made it available to the public. |
(5) |
The Authority concluded that all requirements with respect to data were met and that the modification to the MRL requested by the applicant was acceptable with regard to consumer safety on the basis of a consumer exposure assessment for 27 specific European consumer groups. The Authority took into account the most recent information on the toxicological properties of the substance. Neither the lifetime exposure to the substance via consumption of all food products that may contain it, nor the short-term exposure due to high consumption of peas with pods showed that there is a risk that the acceptable daily intake or the acute reference dose is exceeded. |
(6) |
Based on the reasoned opinion of the Authority, and taking into account the factors relevant to the matter under consideration, the proposed modification to the MRL fulfils the requirements of Article 14(2) of Regulation (EC) No 396/2005. |
(7) |
Regulation (EC) No 396/2005 should therefore be amended accordingly. |
(8) |
The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on Plants, Animals, Food and Feed, |
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
Annex II to Regulation (EC) No 396/2005 is amended in accordance with the Annex to this Regulation.
Article 2
This Regulation shall enter into force on the twentieth day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.
Done at Brussels, 12 October 2021.

Ursula VON DER LEYEN
