A rapporteur change for dimethomorph renewal

Date:07-24-2014

The Netherland has become the rapporteur Member State for the renewal procedure of fungicide dimethomorph. A change from Poland to the Netherlands was proposed by EU after considering the responsibilities and work between Member States. In July 2012, Commission Implementing Regulation (No 686/2012) allocates a rapporteur and a co-rapporteur for the purpose of the renewal procedure of the ai whose approval expires by 2018. Dimethomorph was re-registered in 2007 by BASF and is among 150 active ingredients in the third ai renewal project. This Regulation will enter into force in July.
