Challenges Facing the Tillage Industry: Discussion
2:00 am
Ms Louise Byrne:
In relation to the import tolerances with regard to pesticides, I want to be very clear that the EU regulations allow for those import tolerances to be set to facilitate trade provided that the use is authorised in a third country and there is no risk to the health of EU consumers as determined by the European Food Safety Authority, EFSA. I want to be very clear on that. There is no health risk. I thank the Deputy.
