COUNCILDIRECTIVE
of24July1986
on the fixing of maximum levels for pesticide residues in and on
foodstuffsofanimalorigin
(86/363/EEC)
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic
Community, and in particular Articles43 and 100 thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission(1),
Having regard to the opinion of the European Parliament(2),
Having regard to the opinion of the Economic and Social
Committee(3),
Whereascrop and animal production play a very important role in the
Community;
Whereasthe yield from that production iscontinually affected by
harmful organisms and weeds;
Whereas it is absolutely essential to protect plants, plant products and
livestock against these organisms, not only to prevent a reduction inyield but also to increase agricultural productivity;
Whereas one of the most important methods of protecting plants, plant
products and livestock from the effects of these harmful organisms is
the use of chemical pesticides;
Whereas, however, these pesticides do not have only a favourable
effect on plant and animal production, since they are generally toxicsubstances or preparations with dangerous side-effects;
Whereas a large number of these pesticides and of their metabolites or
breakdown productsmay have harmful effectson cons umersof plantand animal products;
Whereas these pesticides and the contaminants which may accompany
them can present dangers for the environment and indirectly affecthumansthrough animal products ;
Whereas, in order to deal with these dangers, several Member States
have already fixed maximum levels for certain pesticide residues in
and on foodstuffs of animal origin;
Whereasthe differenceswhich exis t between Member Stateswith
regard to the maximum permissible levels for pesticide residues canhelp to create barriersto trade and thushinder the free movement of
goodswithin the Community;
Whereas, for this reason, in an initial stage, maximum levels should be
fixed for certain organochlorine compoundsin meat and meat productsand milk and milk products, which must be observed when these
productsare put into circulation;
Whereas, moreover, observance of the maximum levels will ensure that
the goodscan circulate freely and that the health of cons umersisprop-erly protected;
Whereas at the same time the Member States should be enabled to
authorize the monitoring of levels of pesticide residues in foodstuffsof animal origin produced and consumed in their territory by a moni-toring system and related measures so as to provide safeguardsequivalent to those resulting from the levels laid down;1986L0363 — EN — 07.01.2003 — 022.001 — 2

(3) OJ No C 300, 18. 11. 1980, p. 29.

Whereas it is normally sufficient to apply check sampling to fresh milk
or frozen cream at the dairy or when it isput on s ale to the finalconsumer; whereas, however, Member States should be authorized
also to apply check sampling to fresh milk and fresh cream at an earlier
stage;
Whereas it is not necessary to apply this Directive to products intended
for export to third countries;
WhereasMember Statess hould be allowed to reduce temporarily the
levelslaid down if they unexpectedly prove to be dangerousto humanor animal health;
Whereas it is appropriate in that case to establish close cooperation
between the Member States and the Commission within the StandingCommittee on Plant Health;
Whereas, in order to guarantee compliance with this Directive when
the foodstuffs in question are put into circulation, the Member States
must provide for suitable control measures;
Whereas Community methods of sampling and analysis should be
established to be used at least as reference methods;
Whereas methods of sampling and analysis are technical and scientific
matters, which should be determined by means of a procedure invol-ving close cooperation between the Member States and theCommission within the Standing Committee on Plant Health;
WhereasCouncil Directive 64/433/EEC of 26 June 1964 on health
problemsaffecting intra-Community trade in fres h meat(
1), aslas t
amended by Regulation (EEC) No 3768/85(2), Council Directive 72/
462/EEC of 12 December 1972 on health and veterinary problems
upon importation of bovine animals and swine and fresh meat from
third countries(3), aslas t amended by Regulation (EEC) No 3768/85,
and Council Directive 85/397/EEC of 5 August 1985 on health andanimal-health problemsaffecting intra-Community trade in heat-treatedmilk(
4), asamended by Regulation (EEC) No 3768/85, provide for the
fixing of permitted limits for pesticides with regard respectively to
fresh meat sent from one Member State to another, fresh meat importedfrom third countriesand heat-treated milk s ent from one Member Stateto another, and for the laying down of the required methodsofanalysis; and whereas maximum residue levels laid down in this Direc-tive should also apply for the purposes of those three Directives;
Whereasit isappropriate that Member Statesmake an annual report to
the Commission on the results of their control measures so as to enable
information concerning levels of pesticide residues to be collected for
the Community asa whole;
Whereasthe Council s hould review thisDirective before 30 June 1991
with the aim of attaining a uniform Community system,
HAS ADOPTED THIS DIRECTIVE:
Article 1

dure.
Article 5a
1. For the purposes of this Article a Member State of origin shall be
defined as the Member State in whose territory a product specified in
Article 1 (1) iseither legally produced and marketed or put into free
circulation and a Member State of destination as the Member Stateinto whose territory such product is introduced and put into circulationfor operationsother than trans it to another Member State or thirdcountry.
2. Member States shall introduce arrangements for establishing
maximum residue levels, whether permanent or temporary, for products
referred to in Article 1 (1), brought into their territoriesfrom a Member
State of origin, taking into account good agricultural practice in theMember State of origin, and without prejudice to conditions necessaryto protect the health of consumers, in cases where no maximum residuelevels have been established for these products in accordance with theprovisions of Articles 4 (1) or 5.
3. Where
— no maximum residue level has been established for a product
referred to in Article 1 (1) in accordance with Articles4 (1) or 5,and
— that product, which satisfies the maximum residue levels applied by
itsMember State of origin, hasbeen s ubjected in the Member Stateof destination to measures whose effect is to prohibit or restrict itsputting into circulation, on the groundsthat the product containspesticide residue levels in excess of the maximum residue levelaccepted in the Member State of destination, and
— either the Member State of destination has introduced new
maximum res idue levelsor hasaltered the levelslaid down in itslegislation, or it has made changes to its controls which are dispro-

adopted to the other Member State concerned and the Commissionwithin 20 daysof their application. The notification s hall documentthe factsinvolved;
(b) on the basis of the notification referred to in (a), the two Member
Statesconcerned s hall contact each other without delay in order toremove, whenever possible, the prohibitive or restrictive effect ofthe measures adopted by the Member State of destination by meansof measures agreed between them; the Member States shall submit
all the requisite information to each other.
Within a period of three monthsof the notification referred to in
(a), the Member States concerned shall inform the Commission ofthe result of such contacts and in particular the measures they
intend to apply, if any, including the maximum residue level they
have agreed. The Member State of origin shall inform the otherMember States of the result of such contacts;
(c) the Commission shall immediately refer the matter to the Standing
Committee on Plant Health and, if possible, submit a proposal
aimed at establishing in Annex II a temporary maximum residuelevel which shall be adopted in accordance with the procedurelaid down in Article 12.
In its proposal, the Commission shall take account of existing tech-
nical and scientific knowledge on the matter and in particular data
submitted by the Member States with an interest, especially thetoxicological assessment and estimated ADI, good agriculturalpractice and the trial data which the Member State of origin usedto establish the maximum residue level, together with the reasons
given by the Member State of destination for deciding on the
measures in question.
The period of validity of the temporary maximum level shall be
laid down in the legal act adopted and may not exceed four years.That period may be linked to the supply, by the Member State of
origin and/or other Member Stateswith an interes t, of the trial data
required by the Commission in order to set the maximum residuelevel in accordance with Article 4 (1). At their request, theCommission and the Member States shall be kept informedregarding the programme of trials established.

(1) In the case of foodstuffs with a fat content of 10 % or less by weight, the residue is related to the total weight of the boned foodstuff. In such cases, the maximum level ►C1isone tenth of the value ◄related to fat content,
but must be no less than 0,01 mg/kg.
►M20(2) In determining the residues in raw cow's milk and whole cream cow's milk, a fat content of 4 % by weight should be taken as a basis. For raw milk and whole cr eam milk of another animal origin the residues are
expressed on the basis of the fat.
For the other foodstuffs listed in Annex I under CN codes 0401, 0402, 0405 00, and 0406:
— with a fat content of less than 2 % by weight , the maximum level is taken as half that set for raw milk and whole cream milk,
— with a fat content of 2 % or more by weight, the maximum level is expressed in mg/kg of fat. In such cases, the maximum level is 25 times that set for raw milk and whole cream milk. ◄
(3) For eggs and egg products with a fat content higher than 10 % the maximum level is expressed in mg/kg fat. In this case the maximum level is 10 times higher than the maximum level for fresh eggs.
(4) Footnotes(1), (2) and (3) do not apply in cases where the lower limit of analytical determination is indicated. ◄
