Commission Regulation (EU) 2017/405 of 8 March 2017 amending Annexes II and III to Regulation (EC) No 396/2005 of the European Parliament and of the Council as regards maximum residue levels for sulfoxaflor in or on certain products (Text with EEA relevance) THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION, Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, Having regard to Regulation (EC) No 396/2005 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 23 February 2005 on maximum residue levels of pesticides in or on food and feed of plant and animal origin and amending Council Directive 91/414/EEC OJ L 70, 16.3.2005, p. 1. , and in particular Article 14(1)(a) thereof, Whereas: (1) On 5 July 2013, 18 July 2014 and 11 July 2015, the Codex Alimentarius Commission (CAC) adopted Codex maximum residue limits (CXLs) for sulfoxaflor http://www.codexalimentarius.org/download/report/799/REP13_PRe.pdf Joint FAO/WHO food standards programme Codex Alimentarius Commission.

Appendices III and IV. 38th Session. Geneva, Switzerland, 6-11 July 2015. . (2) Maximum residue levels (MRLs) are set for that substance in Regulation (EC) No 396/2005. (3) In accordance with Article 5(3) of Regulation (EC) No 178/2002 of the European Parliament and of the Council Regulation (EC) No 178/2002 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 28 January 2002 laying down the general principles and requirements of food law, establishing the European Food Safety Authority and laying down procedures in matters of food safety (OJ L 31, 1.2.2002, p. 1). , where international standards exist or their completion is imminent, they are to be taken into consideration in the development or adaptation of food law, except where such standards or relevant parts would be an ineffective or inappropriate means for the fulfilment of the legitimate objectives of food law or where there is a scientific justification, or where they would result in a different level of protection from the one determined as appropriate in the Community. Moreover, in accordance with point (e) of Article 13 of that Regulation, the Union is to promote consistency between international technical standards and food law while ensuring that the high level of protection adopted in the Union is not reduced. (4) The Union presented a reservation to the Codex Committee on Pesticides Residues (CCPR) on the CXLs proposed for the following pesticide/product combinations: sulfoxaflor (fruiting vegetables other than cucurbits; leafy vegetables). (5) CXLs for sulfoxaflor, which are not listed in recital 4, should therefore be included in Regulation (EC) No 396/2005 as MRLs except where they relate to products which are not set out in Annex I to that Regulation or where they are set at a lower level than the current MRLs. Those CXLs are safe for consumers in the Union
