3 Page 3 of 18 PART A Risk Management The company Cheminova A/S has requested a label extension according to article 51 in for the product NEXIDE (formulation code: ). This document describes the specific conditions of use and labelling required for extension of the registration of NEXIDE containing gamma-cyhalothrin in. The risk assessment conclusions are based on the already existing registration of the preparation in. Therefore, the evaluation of the current application is limited to the points not covered by the existing authorizations. The existing registration of the preparation NEXIDE (Marketing authorisation n based on application n ) was based on the assessment of the representative formulation which was evaluated during the Annex I inclusion of gamma-cyhalothrin CORELLO (GF-317), a similar formulation containing gamma-cyhalothrin 60 g/l CS. The products CORELLO (GF-317) and NEXIDE (CHA1526) are equivalent. Appendix 1 of this document provides a copy of the French decision. Appendix 2 of this document is a copy of the draft product label as proposed by the applicant. Appendix 3 of this document is a copy of the letter(s) of access. 1 DETAILS OF THE APPLICATION 1.1 Application background NEXIDE () is a capsule suspension formulation containing 60 g/l of gamma-cyhalothrin, for use as an insecticide for the control of various pests. The aim of this registration application is to gain label extension for crops for seed production. The complete GAP for the national application in is provided below, under point Active substance approval Gamma-cyhalothrin Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 1334/2014 of 16 December 2014 approving the active substance gamma-cyhalothrin, in accordance with Regulation (EC) No 1107/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council concerning the placing of plant protection products on the market, and amending the Annex to Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 540/2011 and allowing Member States to extend provisional authorisations granted for that active substance Specific provisions of regulation were as follows : For the implementation of the uniform principles as referred to in Article 29(6) of Regulation (EC) No 1107/2009, the conclusions of the review report on gamma-cyhalothrin, and in particular Appendices I and II thereof, as finalised in the Standing Committee on Plants, Animals, Food and Feed on 10 October 2014 shall be taken into account. In this overall assessment Member States shall pay particular attention to: (a) the safety of operators and workers; (b) the risk to aquatic organisms. Conditions of use shall include risk mitigation measures, where appropriate. The applicant shall submit confirmatory information as regards: (1) analytical methods for the monitoring of residues in body fluids, tissues and environmental matrices;

4 Page 4 of 18 (2) the toxicity profile of the metabolites CPCA, PBA and PBA(OH); (3) the long-term risk to wild mammals; (4) the potential for biomagnification in terrestrial and aquatic food chains. The applicant shall submit to the Commission, the Member States and the Authority the relevant information by 31 March An EFSA conclusion is available (EFSA Journal 2014;12(2):3560) A Review Report is available (SANCO/10606/2014 rev. 1, 10 October 2014). 1.3 Regulatory Approach The present application (n ) was evaluated in by the French Agency for Food, Environmental and Occupational Health & Safety (Anses) 1. The current document based on Anses assessment of the application submitted for this product is in compliance with Regulation (EC) no 1107/2009 2, implementing regulation and French regulation. Since the application is intended for use in only, the draft Part A was not circulated for comments. According to the French law and procedures, specific conditions of use are set in the decision letter. The French Order of 12 September provides that: - unless formaly stated in the product authorisation, the pre harvest interval (PHI) is at least 3 days; - unless formaly stated in the product authorisation, the minimum buffer zone alongside a water body is 5 m; - unless formally stated in the product authorisation, the minimum reentry delay is 6 hours for field uses and 8 hours for indoor uses. Drift reduction measures such as low-drift nozzles are not considered within the decision making process in. However, drift buffer zones may be reduced under some circumstances as explained in appendix 3 of the abovementioned French order. The data taken into account are those deemed to be valid either at European Union level or at zonal/national level. This part A presents a summary of essential scientific points upon which recommendations are based and is not intended to show the assessment in detail. The conclusions relating to the acceptability of risk are based on the criteria indicated in Regulation (EU) N 546/2011 4, and are expressed as acceptable or not acceptable in accordance with those criteria. Last, the French Order of 26 March provides that: - an authorisation granted for a reference crop applies also for linked crops, unless formally stated in the decision - the reference and linked crops are defined in Appendix 1 of that French Order. Thus, at French national level, possible extrapolation of submitted data and the corresponding assessment from reference crops to linked ones are undertaken even if not clearly requested by the applicant in their drr, and a conclusion is reached on the acceptability of the intended uses on those linked crops. The aim of this Order, French Food Safety Agency, Afssa, before 1 July 2010 REGULATION (EC) No 1107/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 21 October 2009 concerning the placing of plant protection products on the market and repealing Council Directives 79/117/EEC and 91/414/EEC COMMISSION REGULATION (EU) No 546/2011 of 10 June 2011 implementing Regulation (EC) No 1107/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council as regards uniform principles for evaluation and authorisation of plant protection products

5 Page 5 of 18 mainly based on the EU document on residue data extrapolation 6 is to supply minor crops with registered plant protection products. Therefore the GAP table (Section 2.3) and Decision may include uses on crops not originally requested by the applicant. The decision, as duplicated in Appendix 1, takes also into account national provisions, including national mitigation measures. 1.4 Data Protection Claims There is no new data submitted with this application. The studies referred to were submitted at the EU level (representative formulation) or at the first registration of the preparation in. 6 SANCO document guidance document:- Guidelines on comparability, extrapolation, group tolerances and data requirements for setting MRLs : SANCO/ 7525/VI/95 - rev.9

If used properly and according to the intended conditions of use, adverse health effects for operators, workers, bystanders and residents will not be expected Residues and Consumer Exposure The use claimed in the seed-bearing plants for the preparation NEXIDE does not lead to a human exposure through residues in food. The evaluation of consumer exposure is therefore not necessary Residues Not relevant for this application Consumer exposure Not relevant for this application Environmental fate and behaviour The preparation is already registered in. There is no mitigation measure to protect groundwater Ecotoxicology The preparation is already registered in. To protect aquatic organisms, respect an unsprayed buffer zone of 20 metres to surface water bodies. To protect non-target arthropods, respect an unsprayed buffer zone of 5 metres to non-agricultural land. Mitigation measures to protect bees are applicable Efficacy According to Article 51 of Regulation (EC) No 1107/2009, the efficacy assessment and the absence of any phytotoxicity risk on the crop is not necessary. 3.2 Conclusions arising from French assessment Taking into account the above assessment, an authorisation can be granted as proposed in Appendix 1 Copy of the product decision. 3.3 Further information to permit a decision to be made or to support a review of the conditions and restrictions associated with the authorisation No further information is required.
