Modification of the existing maximum residue level for dodine in honey

In accordance with Article 6 of Regulation (EC) No 396/2005, the applicant Arysta Lifescience Benelux Srl submitted a request to the competent national authority in Spain to modify the existing maximum residue level (MRL) for the active substance dodine in honey. The data submitted in support of the request were found to be sufficient to derive an MRL proposal for honey. An adequate analytical method for enforcement is available to control the residues of dodine in honey at the validated limit of quantification (LOQ) of 0.01 mg/kg. Based on the risk assessment results, EFSA concluded that the short-term and long-term intake of the potential transfer of dodine residues in honey, in accordance with the reported agricultural practices on melliferous crops, is unlikely to present a risk to consumer health.
