Amendments to the APVMA MRL Standard

The Australian Pesticides and Veterinary Medicines Authority (APVMA) approves maximum residue limits (MRLs) of agricultural and veterinary chemicals in agricultural produce, particularly produce entering the food chain. The MRLs approved by the APVMA are associated with a regulatory decision to register a product, grant a permit approval, or as an outcome from a review decision and are set out in the Agricultural and Veterinary Chemicals Code Instrument No. 4 (MRL Standard) 2012. The MRL Standard lists MRLs of substances that may arise from the approved use of agricultural and veterinary chemical products containing those substances on commodities used for human consumption as well as livestock feeds. The MRL Standard also provides the relevant residue definitions to which these MRLs apply. There may be situations where the residue definition for monitoring and enforcement is different to the definition used for dietary risk assessment purposes.

MRLs are set at levels which are not likely to be exceeded if the agricultural or veterinary chemicals are used in accordance with approved label instructions. In considering MRLs and variation to MRLs, the APVMA takes into account studies on chemistry, metabolism, analytical methodology, residues, toxicology, good agricultural practice and dietary exposure. In approving MRLs, the APVMA is satisfied, from dietary exposure assessment, that the levels set are not an undue hazard to human health.

The APVMA has amended the MRL Standard and the changes will have affect the day after the instrument is registered.

Details of the amendment can be found in the Agricultural and Veterinary Chemicals Code Instrument No. 4 (MRL Standard) Amendment Instrument 2017 (No. 11).

The amendments will be incorporated into the compilation of the Agricultural and Veterinary Chemicals Code Instrument No. 4 (MRL Standard) 2012.

The MRL Standard is accessible via the Federal Register of Legislation website www.legislation.gov.au or the links above.

Amendments to the APVMA MRL Standard

Commonwealth of Australia Gazette No. APVMA 22, Tuesday, 31 October 2017 Agricultural and Veterinary Chemicals Code Act 1994 20

Proposal to Amend Schedule 20 of the Australia New Zealand Food Standards Code

In the previous notice on page 19 of APVMA Gazette No. 22 the APVMA gazetted amendments which it has approved to vary maximum residue limits (MRLs) for substances contained in agricultural and veterinary chemical products as set out in the APVMA’s MRL Standard.

Under section 82 of the Food Standards Australia New Zealand Act 1991, the APVMA is proposing to incorporate those variations (Agricultural and Veterinary Chemicals Code Instrument No. 4 (MRL Standard) Amendment Instrument 2017 (No. 11)) to MRLs into Schedule 20–Maximum residue limits in the Australia New Zealand Food Standards Code.

MRLs contained in Schedule 20 provide the limits for residues of agricultural and veterinary chemicals that may legitimately occur in foods. By this means, Schedule 20 permits the sale of treated foods and protects public health and safety by minimising residues in foods consistent with the effective control of pests and diseases.

The APVMA and Food Standards Australia New Zealand (FSANZ) are satisfied, based on dietary exposure assessments and current health standards, that the proposed limits are not harmful to public health.

The agreement between the Australian Government and the New Zealand Government concerning a Joint Food Standards System, excludes MRLs for agricultural and veterinary chemicals in food from the system setting joint food standards. Australia and New Zealand independently and separately develop MRLs for agricultural and veterinary chemicals in food.

FSANZ will make a Sanitary and Phytosanitary (SPS) notification to the World Trade Organization (WTO).

The APVMA invites comment on these proposals. Details on how to make a submission appear near the end of this notice, below the details of the proposed amendment.

The APVMA will consider any public comments made in response to this proposal. If the APVMA decides to proceed with the proposal, it will further notify any variations it makes to Schedule 20 in the APVMA Gazette. The variations will take effect as from the date of that subsequent notice.

Variations to Schedule 20 of the Australia New Zealand Food Standards Code

The APVMA has previously gazetted particular amendments which it had made to the APVMA MRL Standard and which have been proposed as variations to maximum residue limits (MRLs) for substances contained in agricultural and veterinary chemical products as set out as in Schedule 20–Maximum Residue Limits of the Australia New Zealand Food Standards Code. This notice pertains to proposals (No. 8) gazetted on 16 August 2017 (No. APVMA 16).

Submissions have been sought on these proposals and the APVMA has written separately to each person or organisation that made a submission. All matters raised in the submissions have been resolved.

Under subsection 82(1) of the Food Standards Australia New Zealand Act 1991, the APVMA has, by legislative instrument, incorporated these variations to MRLs into Schedule 20. A copy of the Amendment Instrument (No. APVMA 22, 2017) accompanies this notice. For a complete and up-to-date version of Schedule 20, including these amendments together with their Explanatory Statement, please refer to the Federal Register of Legislation website at www.legislation.gov.au

Based on dietary exposure assessments and current health standards, the APVMA and Food Standards Australia and New Zealand (FSANZ) are satisfied that these MRLs are not harmful to public health. MRLs contained in Schedule 20 provide the limits for residues of agricultural and veterinary chemicals that may legitimately occur in foods. By this means, Schedule 20 permits the sale of treated foods and protects public health by minimising residues in foods consistent with the effective control of pests and diseases.

The agreement between the Australian Government and the New Zealand Government concerning a Joint Food Standards System, excludes MRLs for agricultural and veterinary chemicals in food from the system setting joint food standards. Australia and New Zealand independently and separately develop MRLs for agricultural and veterinary chemicals in food.

FSANZ made Sanitary and Phytosanitary (SPS) notification to the World Trade Organization (WTO) in relation to these variations and no comment was received in response to that notice.

A copy of these variations have been given to FSANZ.

The variations take effect as from the date of this notice.

This notice is published in accordance with subsection 82(7) of the Food Standards Australia New Zealand Act 1991.
