The Australian Pesticides and Veterinary Medicines Authority (APVMA) has published its proposed decision on the reconsideration of diazinon, an insecticide and acaricide used for the control of pests in various agricultural, horticultural, commercial, and veterinary situations.
The APVMA is proposing to:
vary and affirm chemical product registrations and associated label approvals where at least one use pattern is proposed to be supported
cancel active constituent approvals, chemical product registrations and associated label approvals that do not meet the statutory safety, trade or labelling criteria
vary and affirm remaining active constituent approvals to update the conditions of approval.
The proposed decision includes consideration of all current approved diazinon active constituents, registered chemical products and approved labels.
A summary of diazinon uses, which are proposed to be supported or not supported, are available on the APVMA website. A summary of the underlying risk assessments has also been published in the Review Technical Report.
Public consultation on the proposed decision is open for 3 months and will close 11 June 2024. The APVMA Special Gazette, 12 March 2024 includes more information about the proposed decision and how to make a submission.
