Evaluation of confirmatory data following the Article 12 MRL review for kresoxim-methyl

The applicant BASF SE submitted a request to the competent national authority in Belgium to evaluate the confirmatory data that were identified for kresoxim-methyl in the framework of the maximum residue level (MRL) review under Article 12 of Regulation (EC) No 396/2005 as not available. To address the confirmatory data requirement, a new study on the storage stability of kresoxim-methyl residues in animal matrices was submitted. The data gap was considered satisfactorily addressed. The new information provided did not require a revision of the existing MRLs and of the risk assessment performed for kresoxim-methyl.
