%X In compliance with Article 43 of Regulation (EC) No 396/2005, the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) received from the European Commission a mandate to provide its reasoned opinion on the existing maximum residue levels (MRLs) for lambda-cyhalothrin which might lead to consumers intake concerns on the basis of the new toxicological reference values for gamma-cyhalothrin and of the data currently available to EFSA for lambda-cyhalothrin. In order to identify the MRLs of potential concern that require a more detailed assessment, EFSA performed a conservative risk assessment screening taking into account the crops for which MRLs were proposed in the framework of the Article 12 and the Article 43 of Regulation (EC) No 396/2005 reflecting the use of lambda-cyhalothrin and the new toxicological reference values for gamma-cyhalothrin.
