For dimethomorph, dithiocarbamates (mancozeb), fipronil, fludioxonil, pirimicarb, prosul- focarb, tebuconazole, triclopyr and valiphenal, MRLs were set in part A of Annex III to Regulation (EC) No 396/2005. So far, for amisulbrom, ametoctradin and bixafen no specific MRLs were set nor were the substances included in Annex IV to Regulation (EC) No 396/2005. In the context of a procedure, in accordance with Council Directive 91/414/EEC of 15 July 1991 concerning the placing of plant protection products on the market (%), for the authorisation of the use of a plant protection product containing the active substance azoxystrobin on cardoon an application was made under Article 6(1) of Regulation (EC) No 396/2005 for modification of the existing MRL. As regards acetamiprid, such an application was made for the use on beet leaves and cherries. As regards acibenzolar-S-methyl, such an application was made for the use on peach and apricots. As regards amisulbrom, such an application was made for the use on wine and table grapes. As regards bixafen, such an application was made for cereals. In view of that application, it is necessary to set MRLs for meat, fat, liver, kidney and milk from bovines, sheep and goats, since cereals are used as feed and residues may end up on forage for these animals. As regards ametoctradin, such an appli- cation was made for the use on table and wine grapes, potatoes, tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers, —courgette, melon, watermelon, pumpkin, lettuce, and lamb’s lettuce. As regards dithiocarbamates (mancozeb), such an application was made for the use on peas without pods.

As regards fipronil, an application was made to modify the values for cereals. As regards imazalil, an application was made to modify the value for the limit of determination, LOD. As regards pirimicarb, such an application was made for the use on fennel. As regards prohexadione, such an application was made to change the residue definition and for the use on rye. As regards prosulfocarb, such an application was made for the use on carrots and celeriac. As regards tebuconazole, such an application was made for the use on mandarins. As regards thiacloprid, such an application was made for olives, poppy seeds and various root and tuber vegetables. As regards triclopyr, such an application was made to change the residue definition on animal products and to change the MRLs on animal products. As regards valifenalate, such an application was made for the use on tomatoes and aubergine. In accordance with Article 6(2) and (4) of Regulation (EC) No 396/2005 an application was made for tebu- conazole on passion fruit. The authorised use of tebu- conazole on passion fruit in Kenya leads to higher residues than the MRL in Annex IIl to Regulation (EC) No 396/2005. To avoid trade barriers for the importation of passion fruits, a higher MRL is necessary. The authorised uses of pyraclostrobin on cherries, plums,
