Outcome of the public consultation on the draft scientific report on the cumulative dietary risk characterisation of pesticides that have acute effects on the nervous system

The European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) carried out a public consultation to receive input from interested parties on its draft scientific report on the cumulative dietary risk characterisation of pesticides that have acute effects on the nervous system. The document describes the process and the outcome of a risk assessment and an uncertainty analysis regarding the cumulative effects of pesticide residues on acetylcholinesterase and the motor division of the nervous system. The web‐based public consultation took place from 17 September to 15 November 2019. EFSA received comments from 17 parties including academia, national agencies, non‐governmental organisations and private bodies. This report lists the individual comments received and explains in detail how they were taken into account during the finalisation process of the scientific report. EFSA wishes to thank all the commenters for their valuable contributions.
