THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,Having regard to Regulation (EC) No 396/2005 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 23 February 2005 on maximum residue levels of pesticides in or on food and feed of plant and animal origin and amending Council Directive 91/414/EECnote, and in particular Article 29(2) thereof,Whereas:
(1)Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2025/854note aims to ensure compliance with maximum residue levels of pesticides and to assess the consumer exposure to pesticide residues. For that purpose, that Regulation sets out a control programme and the number of samples per Member State that are to be taken.
(2)Part C of Annex I to Implementing Regulation (EU) 2025/854 contains two errors which affect the substance of the provisions concerned. First, as regards fosetyl-Al, the new residue definition for enforcement provided by Commission Regulation (EU) 2024/2619note was not taken into account. Second, it is wrongly indicated that trimethyl-sulfonium cation is to be analysed in and on onions in 2027, instead of in 2026.
(3)Implementing Regulation (EU) 2025/854 should therefore be corrected accordingly.
(4)The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on Plants, Animals, Food and Feed,
