(2017)10 • The first column “distr” shows the number of 2017 notifications for each country
to which the Commission’s Services notified distribution of a product. The second column “orig” shows the number of 2017 notifications for each country to which the Commission’s Services notified a product originating from it.
• The third column “other” gives the number of notifications for which the country was notified for another reason than origin or distribution e.g. if the product transited through the country. The fourth column “follow-ups” shows the number of follow-ups received from each country in 2017
MRL in RASFF report
• As many as 132 out of the 186 notifications are rejections at the EEA border. These products therefore never entered the EU. This is certainly in part due to the list of commodities held under Regulation (EC) No 669/2009, which is reviewed twice yearly, requiring intensified checks at the border.
• From 1 January 2016 however, working instruction 2.2 is applied in RASFF for evaluating the risk posed by pesticide residue notifications on the basis of a short term intake exceeding the acute reference dose for a pesticide active substance. If the acute residue dose is not exceeded, no health risk is expected. From 2016 onwards therefore, for
• notifications made in RASFF on pesticide residues, the residue level is sufficiently high to not allow excluding an acute health risk to the consumer. For some substances however, the acute reference dose is not determined while an acute health risk is not ruled out. Such notifications are accepted if these substances are found in levels above the MRL. Propargite is one such substance.
