The substance fluazuron is included in Annex III
to
Regulation (EEC) No 2377/90 for bovine for muscle,
fat,
liver and kidney, excluding animals from which
milk is produced for human consumption. Additional
data were provided and assessed leading to the recom-
mendation that fluazuron should be included in Annex I
to Regulation (EEC) No 2377/90 for bovine for muscle,
fat, liver and kidney, excluding animals from which milk
is produced for human consumption.

Following examination of an application for the estab-
lishment of maximum residue limits for sodium nitrite in
dairy cattle, it is considered appropriate to include this
substance in Annex II to Regulation (EEC) No 2377/90
for the bovine species for topical use only.

porcine species,
this substance in Annex II
to Regulation (EEC) No
2377/90 for the porcine species.

Regulation (EEC) No 2377/90 should therefore be
amended accordingly.

An adequate period should be allowed before the appli-

States to make any adjustment which may be necessary
in the light of this Regulation to the authorisations to
place the veterinary medicinal products concerned on the
market which have been granted in accordance with
Directive 2001/82/EC of the European Parliament and
the Council of 6 November 2001 on the
