Peer review of the pesticide risk assessment of the active substance fenpicoxamid (XDE‐777)

The conclusions of EFSA following the peer review of the initial risk assessments carried out by the competent authority of the rapporteur Member State, the United Kingdom, for the pesticide active substance fenpicoxamid (XDE‐777) and the assessment of applications for maximum residue levels (MRLs) are reported. The context of the peer review was that required by Regulation (EC) No 1107/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council. The conclusions were reached on the basis of the evaluation of the representative use of fenpicoxamid (XDE‐777) as a fungicide on cereals (winter and spring wheat, durum wheat, rye and triticale). MRLs were assessed in rye and wheat (including triticale and spelt). An MRL application for the import tolerance on bananas was also assessed. The reliable endpoints, appropriate for use in regulatory risk assessment and the proposed MRLs, are presented. Missing information identified as being required by the regulatory framework is listed. Concerns are identified.
