Farm to Fork- integrated approach
![Page 7: Monitoring Obligations under MRL legislation-](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062322/56814834550346895db5551a/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
European Legislation

Official food and feed controls
• EU Official Food and Feed Controls (OFFC) regime
• Food & feed controls must be :– Risk-based, carried out regularly and at
appropriate frequency– Covered by a single, co-ordinated, national
control plan covering several years– Staff must be trained and competent– Laboratories must be competent and audited

UK NCP- Farm to Fork principles
• 140,000 FBO

EU legislation requires member States to …
• carry out regular official controls on pesticide residues in food commodities to check compliance with MRLs (legal limits)
• establish national monitoring programmes
• take part in a specific EU coordinated monitoring
• take effective, proportionate and dissuasive sanctions
• Submit annual results to EFSA

Risk assessment
• In the UK, CRD takes this role
• Potential intakes of national consumer groups from actual detected residues, reflecting national culinary practice and diets calculated and compared with ADI and/or ARfD
• This may give a different answer to PRIMO
![Page 24: Monitoring Obligations under MRL legislation-](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062322/56814834550346895db5551a/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Risk Assessment monitoring
EU results EFSA
• Uses PRIMO
• European diet
• 97.5th percentile
• Highest residue from monitoring
• Applies variability factor
• Determines critical consumer
UK Monitoring CRD
• Use national dietary consumption data
• Acute intake model
• Uses 97.5th percentile
• Assumes highest residue from monitoring
• Applies variability factor
• Determines critical consumer
![Page 25: Monitoring Obligations under MRL legislation-](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062322/56814834550346895db5551a/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Risk management
• The Food Standards Agency leads on this in the UK
• CRD have a risk assessment and risk management role
• Decisions on action to be taken on national basis:
• Range of options, potentially including withdrawal
• For foods traded outside the country, RASFF notification
![Page 26: Monitoring Obligations under MRL legislation-](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062322/56814834550346895db5551a/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)

Actions –follow up and enforcement- European level
Non compliance posing risk to consumers is followed up
• Commission audits by FVO
• Specific monitoring obligations in the co-ordinated plan e.g. amitraz in pears
• Increased border inspection requirements for high risk food products (Regulation (EC) 669/2009)

EU (EFSA) Annual Report
• Based on data from national and EU monitoring from each member State.
• Contents:– Rates of compliance, including patterns by
country and food– EU consumer risk assessment, using all the
data supplied – Recommendations – can relate to PPP
registrations as well as future monitoring

European monitoring
As the co-ordinated programme increases in scope and breadth.
• Increased analytical capability required
• Increased commitment on the official laboratories for training, workshops, EU proficiency tests
• Stronger evidence to take European action
• More evidence to check whether food in EU is safe Farm to Fork ?

European monitoring- integral to Farm to Fork policy.
