Statement on the dietary exposure assessment for the temporary maximum residue levels for chlordecone in certain products of animal origin

Abstract In accordance with Article 43 of Regulation (EC) No 396/2005, the European Commission requested EFSA to carry out a consumer exposure assessment in relation to the maximum residue levels (MRLs) for chlordecone in products of animal origin recommended by the French Agency for Food, Environme...
