The French Association for Plant Protection has created three working groups to study the topic in which AFSSA is highly involved. On January 15, the Agency organised an information and feedback day to review study results. <BR>Close-up on Cruiser: AFSSA issues a positive opinion but under strict conditions of use<BR>15 December 2009<BR>AFSSA received a request to assess the health risks and efficacy of the Cruiser 350 preparation, within the scope of the application for marketing authorisation (MA) for the product. In view of all the data provided by both the manufacturer and the observations made through the surveillance programme implemented by the Ministry of Agriculture, and given the application's compliance with the various provisions of European regulations, AFSSA issued a positive opinion for the public authorities to grant an MA. The Agency has nevertheless restricted this positive opinion to a limited field of use under very strict conditions.<BR>Harmonisation européenne des limites maximales de résidus des pesticides : l'Afssa examine le niveau de protection des consommateurs<BR>22 octobre 2009<BR>Au 1er septembre 2008, une nouvelle réglementation européenne relative aux limites maximales de résidus (LMR) de pesticides dans les denrées est entrée en vigueur. A la demande de la Direction Générale de la Santé, l'Afssa a réalisé une comparaison des anciennes LMR nationales et des nouvelles LMR harmonisées au regard du niveau de protection du consommateur français. Ce travail permet de conclure que le niveau global de protection du consommateur conféré par l'application de cette nouvelle réglementation est équivalent à celui que fournissait l'application de la réglementation nationale. <BR>>> Find out more<BR>News brief<BR>> La Direction du végétal et de l'environnement (Dive) de l'Afssa a organisé les 29 et 30 mars deux journées de formation sur l'évaluation des produits phytopharmaceutiques. <BR>Informations sur : www.afssapro.fr/seminairedive<BR>Home,Anses,News,Press room,Agenda,Our thems,Food,Animal health and nutrition,Environmental health,Occupational health,Plants,Opinions and publications,Last opinions and reports,Food opinions and reports,Animal health and nutrition opinions and reports,Environmental and occupational health opinions and reports,Plants opinions,Bulletins and periodicals,Other publications,Research and reference,Research program,Laboratories and reference activities, + ,Job opportunities,Public procurement contracts,Our websites,Extranet / ExpertNet,Legal notice,Contact, ,<BR>Plants opinions<A HREF='PNB0I0.htm'>See Anses</A>
