EFSA Panel on EFSA Panel on Plant Protection Products and their Residues (PPR)
In compliance with Article 43 of Regulation (EC) No 396/2005, the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) received from the European Commission a mandate to update its previous review of the existing maximum residue levels (MRLs) for lambda-cyhalothrin on the basis of the new toxicological reference values and of the new evaluation report presented by Italy. 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 possible chronic and 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 should also be considered.
