Here is a brief overview (150-200 words) of the provided document:
The European Commission has implemented a regulation amending Implementing Regulation (EU) 2022/1646. This regulation aims to enhance the national risk-based control plans and the national randomised surveillance plan for official controls in the Member States. The amended regulation includes additional content, such as information on follow-up measures taken by competent authorities regarding non-compliant residues detected in previous years. It also clarifies that this information should only be included in data transmitted to the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) and not in the national risk-based control plans.
The regulation requires Member States to submit their control plans and surveillance plan to the Commission, with specific details on the species sampled, place of sampling, and competent authorities responsible for implementation. The amended regulation also introduces a new requirement for controls on each combination of sub-groups of Group A substances and commodity groups, which shall be performed annually in minimum 5% of samples.
The regulation applies from January 1, 2025, and shall enter into force on the twentieth day following its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union. It is binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.
