eu renewal of gmo approvals in june 2013 argentina raised its concerns over the eu renewal procedures and processes for gmo approvals. argentina contended that risk assessment reviews should only be undertaken in cases of new scientific justification. further as the entire eu approval process took approximately four years granting a licence for only ten years was impractical and without scientific justification. the eu process was already overly burdensome and the new requirements were unclear adding to the heavy burden of seeking gmo approval. argentina asked the european union to clarify and rectify their gmo approval process. the european union responded that it was not intending to adopt legislation as was done for the food feed new authorizations but rather to prepare a guidance document which would complement articles 11 and 23 of regulation 1829 2003 already providing general guidance on the renewal process. the european food safety authority was currently working on this more detailed guidance which should be available in autumn 2013 before the first renewal request expected in march 2014.
citrus canker in july 1997 argentina requested bilateral consultations with ec experts on the proposed measure on citrus canker and that the measure be suspended during these consultations. south africa requested that the european communities reassess its measures in light of the fact that south africa was free from citrus canker. the european communities noted that it was preparing a response to the argentine concern and was open to consultations with interested parties. the european communities was moving from a system with internal restrictions in the production areas of italy greece and corsica to a truly single market with free movement of goods. with no restriction on internal movement of fruit and considering the risk of introduction and the related economic consequences alternative protection for the main producing areas had to be considered. this included monitoring requirements in the exporting country treatment and certification. the european communities considered that its measures were based on science and minimized trade effects. in march 1998 the european communities reported that in response to constructive consultations organized by the chairman and involving argentina chile uruguay brazil and south africa the measure had been revised and subsequently adopted. the revised text included the possibility for recognition of equivalent certification systems. argentina agreed but noted that negotiations on equivalence were not yet finished. in june 1998 the european communities indicated that it had come to the conclusion that for the time being argentina could not objectively demonstrate the equivalence of its control measures with ec requirements. argentina requested information on the risk assessment undertaken by the european communities. in march 2004 argentina reported that the issue had been resolved with the european communities.
maximum levels for aflatoxins in corn and sampling contaminants in food argentina reported that consultations between its authorities and the european communities had taken place on 2 july concerning ec regulation 257 02 which imposed new maximum levels for aflatoxins in maize. argentina considered the new measures to be scientifically unfounded and requested the european communities to consider less trade restrictive measures and the possibility of special and differential treatment. the european communities noted that there were considerable health problems with aflatoxins and the difficulties of establishing an appropriate limit. the new regulation would be notified to the committee before it was applied and interested trading partners would have the opportunity to present their concerns and objections. in response to a question from egypt the european communities clarified that the new measure would apply only to maize. in october 2003 argentina stated that the mrl for aflatoxin depended on the intended use of products and the levels were not consistent with international recommendations nor based on scientific evidence. however the new regulation modified the mrl for corn and was less restrictive. argentina requested a review of the sampling levels along with the scientific justification to support the measure. the european communities stated that it had conducted scientific research to support the mrls adopted for corn and that the levels could be met through good agriculture practice. the mrl for corn was established to protect consumer health.

european communities regulation on the registration evaluation and authorization of chemicals reach id 88 the reach stc was first raised in march 2003 against the european white paper on the strategy for the future policy regarding chemical substances which developed a regulation on the registration evaluation authorisation and restriction of chemicals reach aiming to install an environmentally sound regime for the management of chemicals. the main arguments of the concerned members were at the time that the regulation as described in the white book had the potential to impact the production and trade in chemicals and downstream products from autos to textiles with overly burdensome and costly requirements. concerned members noted that the envisaged measure could entail significant compliance costs for smes in particular in developing countries and might not be the least trade restrictive approach to meet legitimate health safety and environmental objectives. the ec notified their first proposed regulations in this area in january 2004 requiring companies that manufacture or import chemicals in quantities of one tonne or more per year to register these chemicals to assess the risks arising from their manufacture and use and to take the necessary measures to manage any risk they identify. this aimed to reverse the burden of proof for ensuring the safety of chemicals from public authorities to industry. six subsequent amendments have been made in relation to different aspects of the reach legislation and the issue has been discussed at a total of 33 tbt committee meeting to date most recently in june 2014. concerned members have raised issues such as the burdensome requirement of establishing an only representative in the eu to to comply with importers obligations general concerns about the substance information exchange forums and domination by eu companies the eus definition of an sme which is claimed by some members to be too restrictive

european union - hazard-based approach to plant protection products and setting of import tolerances id 393 several pieces of eu legislation contained specific provisions as regards endocrine disruptors. this was the case for the plant protection products regulation the biocidal products regulation the reach regulation the water framework directive and the cosmetics regulation. it was therefore judged essential to determine horizontal scientific criteria for the identification of endocrine disruptors applicable across all relevant pieces of legislation. in this context the european commission had been working for a number of years to collect and develo scientific information on this matter. the european commission would probably adopt by september 2013 a recommendation with the criteria for identifying endocrine disruptors. this recommendation would use the world health organization definition of endocrine disruptors and was likely to establish a system with several categories. substances would be allocated to one of these categories based on strength of evidence in a weight-of-evidence approach. the recommendation would also define the criteria for placing substances in the categories. once the recommendation with the horizontal criteria was adopted the plant protection products regulation and the biocidal products regulation would have to be amended to render the criteria legally binding in the context of those regulations. as a consequence substances identified as endocrine disruptors would not be approved as active substances for use in plant protection products nor for biocidal products. the following countries have expressed interest in this measure new zealand

european communities regulation on the registration evaluation and authorization of chemicals reach id 88 the reach stc was first raised in march 2003 against the european white paper on the strategy for the future policy regarding chemical substances which developed a regulation on the registration evaluation authorisation and restriction of chemicals reach aiming to install an environmentally sound regime for the management of chemicals. the main arguments of the concerned members were at the time that the regulation as described in the white book had the potential to impact the production and trade in chemicals and downstream products from autos to textiles with overly burdensome and costly requirements. concerned members noted that the envisaged measure could entail significant compliance costs for smes in particular in developing countries and might not be the least trade restrictive approach to meet legitimate health safety and environmental objectives. the ec notified their first proposed regulations in this area in january 2004 requiring companies that manufacture or import chemicals in quantities of one tonne or more per year to register these chemicals to assess the risks arising from their manufacture and use and to take the necessary measures to manage any risk they identify. this aimed to reverse the burden of proof for ensuring the safety of chemicals from public authorities to industry. six subsequent amendments have been made in relation to different aspects of the reach legislation and the issue has been discussed at a total of 33 tbt committee meeting to date most recently in june 2014. concerned members have raised issues such as the burdensome requirement of establishing an only representative in the eu to to comply with importers obligations general concerns about the substance information exchange forums and domination by eu companies the eus definition of an sme which is claimed by some members to be too restrictive

salmonella-related restriction on fishmeal imports chile and peru sought clarification regarding the ec directive governing exports of fishmeal which was not applied to substitutes to fishmeal. these substitutes could also potentially be contaminated with salmonella as had been confirmed by recent research carried out in the united kingdom. the european communities indicated that the directive was justified on the basis of available scientific information although working groups were considering whether similar criteria should be applied to feedingstuffs of vegetable origin. some ec member states had introduced heat treatment requirements although others had found that there were not sufficient grounds for introducing such criteria. chile also raised concerns with unilateral import prohibitions by france and italy affecting fishmeal for feeding ruminants including mixtures with bone meal with the alleged objective of preventing risk arising from contamination. the european communities answered that it needed to effectively enforce its mammalian protein feed ban to ruminants but was facing practical difficulties in segregating the origins of various raw materials including fish. the european communities indicated it would examine the issue together with the two member states involved.

european communities regulation on the registration evaluation and authorization of chemicals reach id 88 the reach stc was first raised in march 2003 against the european white paper on the strategy for the future policy regarding chemical substances which developed a regulation on the registration evaluation authorisation and restriction of chemicals reach aiming to install an environmentally sound regime for the management of chemicals. the main arguments of the concerned members were at the time that the regulation as described in the white book had the potential to impact the production and trade in chemicals and downstream products from autos to textiles with overly burdensome and costly requirements. concerned members noted that the envisaged measure could entail significant compliance costs for smes in particular in developing countries and might not be the least trade restrictive approach to meet legitimate health safety and environmental objectives. the ec notified their first proposed regulations in this area in january 2004 requiring companies that manufacture or import chemicals in quantities of one tonne or more per year to register these chemicals to assess the risks arising from their manufacture and use and to take the necessary measures to manage any risk they identify. this aimed to reverse the burden of proof for ensuring the safety of chemicals from public authorities to industry. six subsequent amendments have been made in relation to different aspects of the reach legislation and the issue has been discussed at a total of 33 tbt committee meeting to date most recently in june 2014. concerned members have raised issues such as the burdensome requirement of establishing an only representative in the eu to to comply with importers obligations general concerns about the substance information exchange forums and domination by eu companies the eus definition of an sme which is claimed by some members to be too restrictive

eu limits of aluminum in flour products in march 2012 china expressed concerns about eu limits on aluminium content in flour products ec669 2009 and ec887 2010 and excessive testing. the strict requirement by the european union had impacted chinas exports of flour products. the current eu standard based on a 2008 efsa recommendation set out a maximum aluminium content of 10 mg kg so as to ensure that the weekly intake of aluminium was below 1 mg kg of body weight. however in 2011 jecfa changed this weekly intake of aluminium to 2 mg kg of body weight. china urged the european union to reassess the limits for aluminium content in flour products on the basis of the new data from jecfa as unnecessary restrictions on international trade on the premise of safety grounds should be avoided. the european union highlighted the health risks of aluminium whose use as a food additive had been prohibited based on the 2008 efsa opinion. a low tolerance had been established for naturally occurring aluminium in flour. when the level of aluminium detected in food exceeds 10 mg kg it is a clear indication that a food additive containing aluminium has been used. in 2011 there were 35 notifications in the eu rapid alert system for food and feed rassf on high levels of aluminium in noodles from china with levels u to 50 mg kg. since october 2010 dried noodles from china had been subjected to an increased control frequency of 10 which would continue until there was a clear indication that chinese noodle manufacturers were no longer using additives containing aluminium.
directives on residual pesticide tolerance and inspection methods for tea in march 2005 china recalled that in july 2001 the european communities had issued a directive on residual pesticide tolerance and inspection methods for tea in which the ec maximum residue limits mrls for seven types of pesticides were higher than those of the codex standards. when previously discussing that issue bilaterally china had unsuccessfully requested the scientific evidence and risk assessments justifying these mrls. china requested that the european communities apply its detection method for residues on diluted tea as opposed to dry tea leaves in which pesticide levels were much higher. india expressed concerns that tea was being singled out for rigid residual limits while other competing products consumed in larger quantities in european communities were not affected. the european communities clarified that the current regulation on mrls for pesticides was a combination of ec and member states mrls. the european communities was in the process of adopting a new regulation on mrls for pesticides in all food and feedstuffs that would harmonize all ec member states national legislation and would likely enter into force in mid 2006. the ec inspection methods for tea were based on the existing codex methods. regarding indias concern the european communities did not intend to discriminate against tea in relation with any other beverage.

regulation on aflatoxins and ocratoxin a in foods for infants and young children china raised concerns over ec notification g sps n eec 223 and addendum on aflatoxins and ota in foods for infants and young children. studies conducted by jefca concluded that the acceptable level of risk was the same when the level of aflatoxin b1 was reduced from 20 to 10 mg kg and when the level of aflatoxin m1 was reduced from 0.5 to 0.05 mg kg. any further reductions of the levels of aflatoxins b1 and m1 would have no significant impact on public health safety. furthermore jecfa in its 37th session had established a weekly intake of ota of 112 mg kg. this minimum intake was subsequently lowered to 100 mg kg at the 44th session of jecfa and remained unchanged in the 56th session based on results of risk assessments carried out on ota levels in cereals and cereal based products. the european communities was requested to provide scientific justification for its measures and to consider the impact of the measures on international trade. the european communities stated that the ec regulation amending commission regulation 466 2001 concerning aflatoxins and ota in foods for infants and young children applied to products placed in ec markets and was effective from 1 november 2004. although china had not submitted comments during the comment period chinas comments would be taken into account and a written response would be provided. the jecfa studies referenced above were based on intake levels of adults rather then on intake levels of infants. the european communities had therefore considered it necessary to establish maximum levels of aflatoxins of b1 m1 and ota for infants and young children. these maximum levels were achievable and substantiated by data. furthermore they had little trade implications as finished foods for infants and young children were not traded in significant amounts.

european communities regulation on the registration evaluation and authorization of chemicals reach id 88 the reach stc was first raised in march 2003 against the european white paper on the strategy for the future policy regarding chemical substances which developed a regulation on the registration evaluation authorisation and restriction of chemicals reach aiming to install an environmentally sound regime for the management of chemicals. the main arguments of the concerned members were at the time that the regulation as described in the white book had the potential to impact the production and trade in chemicals and downstream products from autos to textiles with overly burdensome and costly requirements. concerned members noted that the envisaged measure could entail significant compliance costs for smes in particular in developing countries and might not be the least trade restrictive approach to meet legitimate health safety and environmental objectives. the ec notified their first proposed regulations in this area in january 2004 requiring companies that manufacture or import chemicals in quantities of one tonne or more per year to register these chemicals to assess the risks arising from their manufacture and use and to take the necessary measures to manage any risk they identify. this aimed to reverse the burden of proof for ensuring the safety of chemicals from public authorities to industry. six subsequent amendments have been made in relation to different aspects of the reach legislation and the issue has been discussed at a total of 33 tbt committee meeting to date most recently in june 2014. concerned members have raised issues such as the burdensome requirement of establishing an only representative in the eu to to comply with importers obligations general concerns about the substance information exchange forums and domination by eu companies the eus definition of an sme which is claimed by some members to be too restrictive

european union - hazard-based approach to plant protection products and setting of import tolerances id 393 several pieces of eu legislation contained specific provisions as regards endocrine disruptors. this was the case for the plant protection products regulation the biocidal products regulation the reach regulation the water framework directive and the cosmetics regulation. it was therefore judged essential to determine horizontal scientific criteria for the identification of endocrine disruptors applicable across all relevant pieces of legislation. in this context the european commission had been working for a number of years to collect and develo scientific information on this matter. the european commission would probably adopt by september 2013 a recommendation with the criteria for identifying endocrine disruptors. this recommendation would use the world health organization definition of endocrine disruptors and was likely to establish a system with several categories. substances would be allocated to one of these categories based on strength of evidence in a weight-of-evidence approach. the recommendation would also define the criteria for placing substances in the categories. once the recommendation with the horizontal criteria was adopted the plant protection products regulation and the biocidal products regulation would have to be amended to render the criteria legally binding in the context of those regulations. as a consequence substances identified as endocrine disruptors would not be approved as active substances for use in plant protection products nor for biocidal products. the following countries have expressed interest in this measure new zealand

european union - hazard-based approach to plant protection products and setting of import tolerances id 393 several pieces of eu legislation contained specific provisions as regards endocrine disruptors. this was the case for the plant protection products regulation the biocidal products regulation the reach regulation the water framework directive and the cosmetics regulation. it was therefore judged essential to determine horizontal scientific criteria for the identification of endocrine disruptors applicable across all relevant pieces of legislation. in this context the european commission had been working for a number of years to collect and develo scientific information on this matter. the european commission would probably adopt by september 2013 a recommendation with the criteria for identifying endocrine disruptors. this recommendation would use the world health organization definition of endocrine disruptors and was likely to establish a system with several categories. substances would be allocated to one of these categories based on strength of evidence in a weight-of-evidence approach. the recommendation would also define the criteria for placing substances in the categories. once the recommendation with the horizontal criteria was adopted the plant protection products regulation and the biocidal products regulation would have to be amended to render the criteria legally binding in the context of those regulations. as a consequence substances identified as endocrine disruptors would not be approved as active substances for use in plant protection products nor for biocidal products. the following countries have expressed interest in this measure new zealand

european communities regulation on the registration evaluation and authorization of chemicals reach id 88 the reach stc was first raised in march 2003 against the european white paper on the strategy for the future policy regarding chemical substances which developed a regulation on the registration evaluation authorisation and restriction of chemicals reach aiming to install an environmentally sound regime for the management of chemicals. the main arguments of the concerned members were at the time that the regulation as described in the white book had the potential to impact the production and trade in chemicals and downstream products from autos to textiles with overly burdensome and costly requirements. concerned members noted that the envisaged measure could entail significant compliance costs for smes in particular in developing countries and might not be the least trade restrictive approach to meet legitimate health safety and environmental objectives. the ec notified their first proposed regulations in this area in january 2004 requiring companies that manufacture or import chemicals in quantities of one tonne or more per year to register these chemicals to assess the risks arising from their manufacture and use and to take the necessary measures to manage any risk they identify. this aimed to reverse the burden of proof for ensuring the safety of chemicals from public authorities to industry. six subsequent amendments have been made in relation to different aspects of the reach legislation and the issue has been discussed at a total of 33 tbt committee meeting to date most recently in june 2014. concerned members have raised issues such as the burdensome requirement of establishing an only representative in the eu to to comply with importers obligations general concerns about the substance information exchange forums and domination by eu companies the eus definition of an sme which is claimed by some members to be too restrictive

european union - hazard-based approach to plant protection products and setting of import tolerances id 393 several pieces of eu legislation contained specific provisions as regards endocrine disruptors. this was the case for the plant protection products regulation the biocidal products regulation the reach regulation the water framework directive and the cosmetics regulation. it was therefore judged essential to determine horizontal scientific criteria for the identification of endocrine disruptors applicable across all relevant pieces of legislation. in this context the european commission had been working for a number of years to collect and develo scientific information on this matter. the european commission would probably adopt by september 2013 a recommendation with the criteria for identifying endocrine disruptors. this recommendation would use the world health organization definition of endocrine disruptors and was likely to establish a system with several categories. substances would be allocated to one of these categories based on strength of evidence in a weight-of-evidence approach. the recommendation would also define the criteria for placing substances in the categories. once the recommendation with the horizontal criteria was adopted the plant protection products regulation and the biocidal products regulation would have to be amended to render the criteria legally binding in the context of those regulations. as a consequence substances identified as endocrine disruptors would not be approved as active substances for use in plant protection products nor for biocidal products. the following countries have expressed interest in this measure new zealand

restrictions on shellfish in june 2002 indonesia raised concerns regarding an ec prohibition on shellfish from indonesia due to biotoxic residues that had been applied for two years. the three gulfs in indonesia which were not free of biotoxins were closed to shellfish fishing. indonesia had responded to a questionnaire from the european communities and was waiting for the european communities to send an inspection team. the european communities indicated that given the high risks associated with shellfish it accepted products only from countries with an approved sanitary programme which included control procedures for the maritime production area. the information provided by indonesia had given the impression that controls were not mandatory and in march 2001 the european communities had sent a further questionnaire. the european communities indicated that as soon as the reply to the questionnaire was received an ec evaluation team would visit indonesia. in november 2002 indonesia reported that an ec inspection team had visited indonesia in october 2002. indonesia was of the view that the resolution of the problem would have a very positive effect on the fish industry in indonesia especially at the production level. the european communities commended indonesia for all the efforts that the country had made to meet the safety requirements set out in ec legislation and hoped that further progress would permit resolution of the problem.

european communities regulation on the registration evaluation and authorization of chemicals reach id 88 the reach stc was first raised in march 2003 against the european white paper on the strategy for the future policy regarding chemical substances which developed a regulation on the registration evaluation authorisation and restriction of chemicals reach aiming to install an environmentally sound regime for the management of chemicals. the main arguments of the concerned members were at the time that the regulation as described in the white book had the potential to impact the production and trade in chemicals and downstream products from autos to textiles with overly burdensome and costly requirements. concerned members noted that the envisaged measure could entail significant compliance costs for smes in particular in developing countries and might not be the least trade restrictive approach to meet legitimate health safety and environmental objectives. the ec notified their first proposed regulations in this area in january 2004 requiring companies that manufacture or import chemicals in quantities of one tonne or more per year to register these chemicals to assess the risks arising from their manufacture and use and to take the necessary measures to manage any risk they identify. this aimed to reverse the burden of proof for ensuring the safety of chemicals from public authorities to industry. six subsequent amendments have been made in relation to different aspects of the reach legislation and the issue has been discussed at a total of 33 tbt committee meeting to date most recently in june 2014. concerned members have raised issues such as the burdensome requirement of establishing an only representative in the eu to to comply with importers obligations general concerns about the substance information exchange forums and domination by eu companies the eus definition of an sme which is claimed by some members to be too restrictive
european union - hazard-based approach to plant protection products and setting of import tolerances id 393 several pieces of eu legislation contained specific provisions as regards endocrine disruptors. this was the case for the plant protection products regulation the biocidal products regulation the reach regulation the water framework directive and the cosmetics regulation. it was therefore judged essential to determine horizontal scientific criteria for the identification of endocrine disruptors applicable across all relevant pieces of legislation. in this context the european commission had been working for a number of years to collect and develo scientific information on this matter. the european commission would probably adopt by september 2013 a recommendation with the criteria for identifying endocrine disruptors. this recommendation would use the world health organization definition of endocrine disruptors and was likely to establish a system with several categories. substances would be allocated to one of these categories based on strength of evidence in a weight-of-evidence approach. the recommendation would also define the criteria for placing substances in the categories. once the recommendation with the horizontal criteria was adopted the plant protection products regulation and the biocidal products regulation would have to be amended to render the criteria legally binding in the context of those regulations. as a consequence substances identified as endocrine disruptors would not be approved as active substances for use in plant protection products nor for biocidal products. the following countries have expressed interest in this measure new zealand

legislation on the fungicide thiabendazole tbz israel was concerned that legislation being considered by the european parliament would ban fungicide residues in fruit juices although they were considered safe according to codex standards. israel saw no scientific justification for banning the use of these fungicides and believed this would create unnecessary trade barriers. israel had raised both with the european communities and with germany a problem regarding german law which restricted residues of tbz and imazalil in citrus juices to such low levels that in effect this constituted a ban. israel requested a clarification regarding the ec position on the european parliament initiative. the european communities explained that the european parliament could introduce amendments to commission proposals and that israel would be kept informed of the situation

european union - proposal for a regulation on fluorinated greenhouse gases id 391 ban on products containing hfc. the ban applied without discrimination to all equipment whether produced in the eu or imported and also covered equipment with capped valves. this measure ensured that equipment would be installed and filled with hfcs by certified persons as only those were allowed to access bulk hfcs. this reduced the risk of accidental release of hfcs during installation by using unqualified persons. in line with this objective equipment that was hermetically sealed during manufacturing and did not allow for opening of the refrigerant circuits was exempted from this requirement. in addition the ban on pre-charging reduced the risk of leakage during packaging and transportation. the proposed regulation maintains the current provisions of regulation ec no 842 2006 with minor adjustments to ensure better implementation and enforcement of the legislation by national authorities. furthermore some measures are extended e.g. to certain transport modes trucks and trailers with refrigeration. quantitative limits for the supply of bulk hfc substances in the eu are proposed complemented by measures ensuring that quantities used in equipment are also covered by the quantitative limit with a gradually declining cap for total placement of bulk hfc substances. the placing on the eu market of bulk hfcs is subject to quotas allocated free of charge to companies based on past reporting data with a reserve for new entrants. the regulation introduces labelling requirements for certain producers. additional reporting obligations are proposed to enable the functioning of the phasedown measure and monitoring of the trends in usage of fluorinated greenhouse gases not yet covered by the legislation

european communities regulation on the registration evaluation and authorization of chemicals reach id 88 the reach stc was first raised in march 2003 against the european white paper on the strategy for the future policy regarding chemical substances which developed a regulation on the registration evaluation authorisation and restriction of chemicals reach aiming to install an environmentally sound regime for the management of chemicals. the main arguments of the concerned members were at the time that the regulation as described in the white book had the potential to impact the production and trade in chemicals and downstream products from autos to textiles with overly burdensome and costly requirements. concerned members noted that the envisaged measure could entail significant compliance costs for smes in particular in developing countries and might not be the least trade restrictive approach to meet legitimate health safety and environmental objectives. the ec notified their first proposed regulations in this area in january 2004 requiring companies that manufacture or import chemicals in quantities of one tonne or more per year to register these chemicals to assess the risks arising from their manufacture and use and to take the necessary measures to manage any risk they identify. this aimed to reverse the burden of proof for ensuring the safety of chemicals from public authorities to industry. six subsequent amendments have been made in relation to different aspects of the reach legislation and the issue has been discussed at a total of 33 tbt committee meeting to date most recently in june 2014. concerned members have raised issues such as the burdensome requirement of establishing an only representative in the eu to to comply with importers obligations general concerns about the substance information exchange forums and domination by eu companies the eus definition of an sme which is claimed by some members to be too restrictive

salmonella-related restriction on fishmeal imports chile and peru sought clarification regarding the ec directive governing exports of fishmeal which was not applied to substitutes to fishmeal. these substitutes could also potentially be contaminated with salmonella as had been confirmed by recent research carried out in the united kingdom. the european communities indicated that the directive was justified on the basis of available scientific information although working groups were considering whether similar criteria should be applied to feedingstuffs of vegetable origin. some ec member states had introduced heat treatment requirements although others had found that there were not sufficient grounds for introducing such criteria. chile also raised concerns with unilateral import prohibitions by france and italy affecting fishmeal for feeding ruminants including mixtures with bone meal with the alleged objective of preventing risk arising from contamination. the european communities answered that it needed to effectively enforce its mammalian protein feed ban to ruminants but was facing practical difficulties in segregating the origins of various raw materials including fish. the european communities indicated it would examine the issue together with the two member states involved.

european union - hazard-based approach to plant protection products and setting of import tolerances id 393 several pieces of eu legislation contained specific provisions as regards endocrine disruptors. this was the case for the plant protection products regulation the biocidal products regulation the reach regulation the water framework directive and the cosmetics regulation. it was therefore judged essential to determine horizontal scientific criteria for the identification of endocrine disruptors applicable across all relevant pieces of legislation. in this context the european commission had been working for a number of years to collect and develo scientific information on this matter. the european commission would probably adopt by september 2013 a recommendation with the criteria for identifying endocrine disruptors. this recommendation would use the world health organization definition of endocrine disruptors and was likely to establish a system with several categories. substances would be allocated to one of these categories based on strength of evidence in a weight-of-evidence approach. the recommendation would also define the criteria for placing substances in the categories. once the recommendation with the horizontal criteria was adopted the plant protection products regulation and the biocidal products regulation would have to be amended to render the criteria legally binding in the context of those regulations. as a consequence substances identified as endocrine disruptors would not be approved as active substances for use in plant protection products nor for biocidal products. the following countries have expressed interest in this measure new zealand

european union - proposal for a regulation on fluorinated greenhouse gases id 391 ban on products containing hfc. the ban applied without discrimination to all equipment whether produced in the eu or imported and also covered equipment with capped valves. this measure ensured that equipment would be installed and filled with hfcs by certified persons as only those were allowed to access bulk hfcs. this reduced the risk of accidental release of hfcs during installation by using unqualified persons. in line with this objective equipment that was hermetically sealed during manufacturing and did not allow for opening of the refrigerant circuits was exempted from this requirement. in addition the ban on pre-charging reduced the risk of leakage during packaging and transportation. the proposed regulation maintains the current provisions of regulation ec no 842 2006 with minor adjustments to ensure better implementation and enforcement of the legislation by national authorities. furthermore some measures are extended e.g. to certain transport modes trucks and trailers with refrigeration. quantitative limits for the supply of bulk hfc substances in the eu are proposed complemented by measures ensuring that quantities used in equipment are also covered by the quantitative limit with a gradually declining cap for total placement of bulk hfc substances. the placing on the eu market of bulk hfcs is subject to quotas allocated free of charge to companies based on past reporting data with a reserve for new entrants. the regulation introduces labelling requirements for certain producers. additional reporting obligations are proposed to enable the functioning of the phasedown measure and monitoring of the trends in usage of fluorinated greenhouse gases not yet covered by the legislation

trade restrictions in response to cholera in march 1998 the european communities informed the committee that it had taken safeguard measures with respect to imports of fruit vegetables and fish products in light of a cholera outbreak in tanzania kenya uganda and mozambique. the inspection procedures in these countries had shown deficiencies but the european communities planned to consult with them to find arrangements by which they could put in force proper hygiene requirements. ec member states were trying to develo a joint cholera policy based on risk assessment. the who observer did not consider the import ban necessary especially on fish products which were not consumed in raw form in europe. he drew attention to the who guidance on foundation of national policy and control of cholera and particularly the conclusion in chapter ix that although there is a theoretical risk of cholera transmission associated with some food commodities moving in international trade this has rarely proved significant and authorities should seek means of dealing with it other than by applying an embargo on importation. in june 1998 tanzania reported that the european communities continued to prohibit the importation of fresh frozen and processed fishery products from the four african countries although tests had not found the bacteria concerned. tanzania stressed that the ec ban was having severe economic effects on the tanzanian economy and that according to the sps agreement members should hel developing countries comply with their sps measures. the european communities responded that it was now satisfied the necessary guarantees were in place and that a new measure restoring trade with the four african countries would probably enter into force on 1 july 1998.

european union - hazard-based approach to plant protection products and setting of import tolerances id 393 several pieces of eu legislation contained specific provisions as regards endocrine disruptors. this was the case for the plant protection products regulation the biocidal products regulation the reach regulation the water framework directive and the cosmetics regulation. it was therefore judged essential to determine horizontal scientific criteria for the identification of endocrine disruptors applicable across all relevant pieces of legislation. in this context the european commission had been working for a number of years to collect and develo scientific information on this matter. the european commission would probably adopt by september 2013 a recommendation with the criteria for identifying endocrine disruptors. this recommendation would use the world health organization definition of endocrine disruptors and was likely to establish a system with several categories. substances would be allocated to one of these categories based on strength of evidence in a weight-of-evidence approach. the recommendation would also define the criteria for placing substances in the categories. once the recommendation with the horizontal criteria was adopted the plant protection products regulation and the biocidal products regulation would have to be amended to render the criteria legally binding in the context of those regulations. as a consequence substances identified as endocrine disruptors would not be approved as active substances for use in plant protection products nor for biocidal products. the following countries have expressed interest in this measure new zealand

european communities regulation on the registration evaluation and authorization of chemicals reach id 88 the reach stc was first raised in march 2003 against the european white paper on the strategy for the future policy regarding chemical substances which developed a regulation on the registration evaluation authorisation and restriction of chemicals reach aiming to install an environmentally sound regime for the management of chemicals. the main arguments of the concerned members were at the time that the regulation as described in the white book had the potential to impact the production and trade in chemicals and downstream products from autos to textiles with overly burdensome and costly requirements. concerned members noted that the envisaged measure could entail significant compliance costs for smes in particular in developing countries and might not be the least trade restrictive approach to meet legitimate health safety and environmental objectives. the ec notified their first proposed regulations in this area in january 2004 requiring companies that manufacture or import chemicals in quantities of one tonne or more per year to register these chemicals to assess the risks arising from their manufacture and use and to take the necessary measures to manage any risk they identify. this aimed to reverse the burden of proof for ensuring the safety of chemicals from public authorities to industry. six subsequent amendments have been made in relation to different aspects of the reach legislation and the issue has been discussed at a total of 33 tbt committee meeting to date most recently in june 2014. concerned members have raised issues such as the burdensome requirement of establishing an only representative in the eu to to comply with importers obligations general concerns about the substance information exchange forums and domination by eu companies the eus definition of an sme which is claimed by some members to be too restrictive

european union - hazard-based approach to plant protection products and setting of import tolerances id 393 several pieces of eu legislation contained specific provisions as regards endocrine disruptors. this was the case for the plant protection products regulation the biocidal products regulation the reach regulation the water framework directive and the cosmetics regulation. it was therefore judged essential to determine horizontal scientific criteria for the identification of endocrine disruptors applicable across all relevant pieces of legislation. in this context the european commission had been working for a number of years to collect and develo scientific information on this matter. the european commission would probably adopt by september 2013 a recommendation with the criteria for identifying endocrine disruptors. this recommendation would use the world health organization definition of endocrine disruptors and was likely to establish a system with several categories. substances would be allocated to one of these categories based on strength of evidence in a weight-of-evidence approach. the recommendation would also define the criteria for placing substances in the categories. once the recommendation with the horizontal criteria was adopted the plant protection products regulation and the biocidal products regulation would have to be amended to render the criteria legally binding in the context of those regulations. as a consequence substances identified as endocrine disruptors would not be approved as active substances for use in plant protection products nor for biocidal products. the following countries have expressed interest in this measure new zealand

european union - proposal for a regulation on fluorinated greenhouse gases id 391 ban on products containing hfc. the ban applied without discrimination to all equipment whether produced in the eu or imported and also covered equipment with capped valves. this measure ensured that equipment would be installed and filled with hfcs by certified persons as only those were allowed to access bulk hfcs. this reduced the risk of accidental release of hfcs during installation by using unqualified persons. in line with this objective equipment that was hermetically sealed during manufacturing and did not allow for opening of the refrigerant circuits was exempted from this requirement. in addition the ban on pre-charging reduced the risk of leakage during packaging and transportation. the proposed regulation maintains the current provisions of regulation ec no 842 2006 with minor adjustments to ensure better implementation and enforcement of the legislation by national authorities. furthermore some measures are extended e.g. to certain transport modes trucks and trailers with refrigeration. quantitative limits for the supply of bulk hfc substances in the eu are proposed complemented by measures ensuring that quantities used in equipment are also covered by the quantitative limit with a gradually declining cap for total placement of bulk hfc substances. the placing on the eu market of bulk hfcs is subject to quotas allocated free of charge to companies based on past reporting data with a reserve for new entrants. the regulation introduces labelling requirements for certain producers. additional reporting obligations are proposed to enable the functioning of the phasedown measure and monitoring of the trends in usage of fluorinated greenhouse gases not yet covered by the legislation

measures on food treated with ionizing radiation in september 1998 the united states sought clarification on the ec measure on food and food ingredients treated with ionizing radiation. the united states was taking similar steps towards recognizing that this technology could play a role in ensuring the wholesomeness and safety of food and had sent official comments to the european communities. however the united states emphasized that the list of products provided in an annex to the ec directive should be expanded to cover other food products such as pork beef poultry fruits and vegetables. the united states also requested explanation of how the approval process for treatment facilities worked. the european communities indicated that the us suggestions would be forwarded to the competent ec services. in a document introduced in july 2001 the united states reported that two ec directives on food irradiation had been adopted in 1999 g sps gen 265 . so far only dried aromatic herbs spices and vegetable seasonings had been included in the positive list. one of the directives required that the commission draft a proposal by 31 december 2000. the commission had published a consultation paper describing a possible strategy for expanding the positive list. after considering comments the commission would submit the paper to the council and the european parliament. the united stated had sent comments on the consultation paper in january 2001 requesting that all foods which received a favourable opinion from the scientific committee for food be included in the positive list. the united states had also requested information on how additional foods could be added to the positive list.
plant health directive in march 2005 the united states noted under the new ec plant health directive 2000 29 ec as amended and regulation 1756 2004 the inspection rates for plant products would significantly increase in relation to previous years. the increase in inspections was likely to slow the release of products to importers thus increasing the potential for spoilage and damage. the united states also sought clarification on how ec member states had provided the data on imported consignments and inspections as required under regulation 1756 2004. the european communities clarified that the overall purpose of the new regulation was to reduce the level of phytosanitary controls on imports of certain plants plants products and other objects listed in part b of annex v to council directive 2000 29 ec. however there would be a period of adjustment in moving towards this new system during which controls would likely increase. a bilateral meeting had permitted discussions of the impact of the legislation with representatives of the us industry and ec authorities were making as quick a transition as possible to the new system of controls taking into account the past record of us fresh produce exports.
prohibition of use and sale of treated seeds in march 2013 the united states noted that on 1 march 2013 the european union submitted notification g sps n eu 39 regarding the prohibition of the use and sale in the european union of seeds treated with plant protection products containing the active substances clothianidin thiamethoxam or imidacloprid. the european union had provided an unusually short comment period of only 11 days. given the complexity of this technical measure the united states asked the european union to extend the comment period to the recommended 60-days to allow trading partners to review and provide comments. the european union explained that the short deadline was due to reasons connected with the legislative process and to the great priority of the issue for the european union. increasing bee mortality was an issue of concern worldwide and the proposal was based on science and justified by a very clear analysis published by efsa last january. the proposal restricted the use of the three substances only on crops that were attractive to bees and provided derogations when the application of the substances took place after flowering. at this stage the actual trade effects of the proposal were considered to be very limited if not negligible. the measure envisaged a temporary suspension of these substances for a 2-year period during which time new scientific data would be brought to light and studied. the european union welcomed an open and constructive dialogue with its trading partners with an interest in the proposal and stated that comments could be submitted at any time.
restrictions on honey imports the united states stated that on 22 may 2003 the european communities initiated administrative steps to prohibit imports of honey from the united states. ec directive 96-23 required exporting countries to submit a residue plan. if the residue plan did not contain sufficient guarantees of compliance with ec residue limits the country would not be authorised to export honey to the european communities. the united states considered the ec regime to be far more trade restrictive than necessary and whilst not having identical rules the united states had comprehensive control mechanisms. furthermore honey was consumed in very small quantities and should be considered a low risk food. the existing rules in the united states were more than adequate to avoid harm to human health. china and mexico supported the concerns raised by the united states. the european communities explained that it was a net importer of honey and that measures were in place to protect consumers. the request for a residue surveillance plan was a general rule which applied to all products and a high level of surveillance was needed for honey as it tended to be consumed by children. the united states had received a warning in february 2003 that the absence of a residue plan would lead to their removal from the list of countries approved for import of honey to the european communities. the european communities was however willing to examine any residue plans provided by the united states.
ban on antibiotics in feed the united states noted the failure of the european communities to notify the ban on four antibiotics used in animal feed to enhance production that had been adopted in december 1998. canada and australia shared the us concern and canada requested to be informed when the european communities reviewed its measure which it understood to be provisional. the european communities replied that this was an interim protective measure which would be re-examined before the end of december 2000. the results of the re-examination would be shared with members as well as published electronically. the measure had not been notified because it did not contain any provision applicable to imports and therefore had no effect on trade
notification on food and feed controls the united states stated that the notified measure would establish an extensive series of official controls on feed and food to be implemented by 1 january 2005. ec member states control systems would be harmonized integrating specific controls at all stages of production in all food and feed sectors. control plans from exporting countries would have to be submitted annually to the european communities. all exporting countries would have to demonstrate compliance or equivalence to the ec food safety measures for all products to be exported as a precondition for market access. control plans required information on all legislation organization of competent authorities training of staff resources available and assurance of equivalence of domestic safety measures. while the united states agreed this approach was appropriate for high risk products such as meat and poultry it felt that this level of risk management was not appropriate for other types of food for which any identified risks were generally quite low. canada shared the concerns raised by the united states and noted that it had recently submitted comments to the european communities. canada sought more information regarding the requirements for non-ec countries. the european communities explained that the regulation should facilitate conformity of imported food with ec health standards and principles for checking food stuffs. written comments received by the 27 july 2003 deadline would be considered by the ec enquiry point and council of ministers. as for the control plans much of the requested information was already available on internet sites i.e. usda and fda. the regulation which was based on codex recommendations would facilitate trade through more transparency and the exchange of information on controls or checks for third countries.

european union proposal for a directive of the european parliament and of the council amending directive 96 53 ec of 25 july 1996 laying down for certain road vehicles circulating within the community the maximum authorised dimensions in national and international traffic and the maximum authorised weights in international traffic com 2013 195 final id 434 the united states was concerned that a european proposed measure amending an existing directive that regulated the maximum dimensions and weights authorized in national and international traffic for certain vehicles would unnecessarily restrict export to europe of us trucks that were at the same time somewhat longer but more aerodynamic and fuel-efficient. the us believed that the amendment may result in the imposition of design based criteria that would exclude products that otherwise would meet the commissions environmental and safety objectives. it therefore enquired more details about the means to meet the objective and the relation to possibly competing objectives whether the european commission was planning on publishing the text to allow for comments from interested stakeholders and asked the the commission to consider a more market based approach that would not unduly limit the designs of tractor cabs. finally the us asked the eu to share further details on the acts under the proposed revision. the eu replied with some precisions on the implementation measure but noted it was still premature to discuss its content as it had not yet been decided upon. the eu informed the us that the content was being defined by an expert grou open to any company willing to apply

certification requirements for pet food in march 1997 the united states expressed concern with regard to french certification requirements adopted under national legislation which blocked us exports of pet food and had not been notified to wto. bilateral exchanges with france had produced no progress. the european communities regretted that their internal procedure for notification of national measures had delayed notification of the french measure in question. the measure had been based on discussions and recommendations at the ec commission level recommendations by the who as well as parallel scientific discussions in the united kingdom and france. in july 1997 the united states again raised concerns with the french measure for protection from tses. the measure did not account for the fact that the united states was bse-free and did not seem to have a scientific basis. furthermore the measure applied to species not affected by tses such as poultry and fish. chile expressed concern regarding the effect the regulation might have on trade in fishmeal. the european communities pointed out a few inaccuracies in the us document and noted that the provisions banning the use of frozen animals or animal cadavers were not necessarily addressing health issues but image and quality and were therefore not strictly relevant under the sps agreement. discussion of the matter continued within the european communities. in july 2001 the united states reported that its exports continued to be hampered by french certification requirements which differed from those applied by other ec member states g sps gen 265 . the united states questioned the scientific foundation for excluding animal meat or bone meal from pet food produced in countries where bse does not occur.

restriction on levels of copper and cadmium in imported squid in october 1996 the united states noted that the spanish regulation on levels of copper and other minerals in imported squid was discriminatory since domestic and ec products were specifically exempted. the european communities replied that the scientific justification for imposing such a measure came from a who recommendation on maximum weekly intakes of metal. harmonization of the permitted levels of various metals across the european communities was currently being discussed in brussels. argentina observed that the problem was not one of harmonization but of national treatment. in march 1997 the united states recalled the discriminatory nature of the measure. the european communities explained that although the norm only referred to third countries in practice it was recognized by ec member states as well. in addition the majority of squid imported into spain came from outside the european communities. since spain had a particularly high consumption of the products in question this had to be taken into account in addition to who recommendations. in july 2001 the united states reported that it was not experiencing any problems in the area and was continuing to monitor the situation g sps gen 265

european communities regulation on the registration evaluation and authorization of chemicals reach id 88 the reach stc was first raised in march 2003 against the european white paper on the strategy for the future policy regarding chemical substances which developed a regulation on the registration evaluation authorisation and restriction of chemicals reach aiming to install an environmentally sound regime for the management of chemicals. the main arguments of the concerned members were at the time that the regulation as described in the white book had the potential to impact the production and trade in chemicals and downstream products from autos to textiles with overly burdensome and costly requirements. concerned members noted that the envisaged measure could entail significant compliance costs for smes in particular in developing countries and might not be the least trade restrictive approach to meet legitimate health safety and environmental objectives. the ec notified their first proposed regulations in this area in january 2004 requiring companies that manufacture or import chemicals in quantities of one tonne or more per year to register these chemicals to assess the risks arising from their manufacture and use and to take the necessary measures to manage any risk they identify. this aimed to reverse the burden of proof for ensuring the safety of chemicals from public authorities to industry. six subsequent amendments have been made in relation to different aspects of the reach legislation and the issue has been discussed at a total of 33 tbt committee meeting to date most recently in june 2014. concerned members have raised issues such as the burdensome requirement of establishing an only representative in the eu to to comply with importers obligations general concerns about the substance information exchange forums and domination by eu companies the eus definition of an sme which is claimed by some members to be too restrictive
european union - hazard-based approach to plant protection products and setting of import tolerances id 393 several pieces of eu legislation contained specific provisions as regards endocrine disruptors. this was the case for the plant protection products regulation the biocidal products regulation the reach regulation the water framework directive and the cosmetics regulation. it was therefore judged essential to determine horizontal scientific criteria for the identification of endocrine disruptors applicable across all relevant pieces of legislation. in this context the european commission had been working for a number of years to collect and develo scientific information on this matter. the european commission would probably adopt by september 2013 a recommendation with the criteria for identifying endocrine disruptors. this recommendation would use the world health organization definition of endocrine disruptors and was likely to establish a system with several categories. substances would be allocated to one of these categories based on strength of evidence in a weight-of-evidence approach. the recommendation would also define the criteria for placing substances in the categories. once the recommendation with the horizontal criteria was adopted the plant protection products regulation and the biocidal products regulation would have to be amended to render the criteria legally binding in the context of those regulations. as a consequence substances identified as endocrine disruptors would not be approved as active substances for use in plant protection products nor for biocidal products. the following countries have expressed interest in this measure new zealand
