Abstract
The conclusions of the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) following the peer review of the initial risk assessment carried out by the competent authority of the rapporteur Member State Sweden, for the pesticide active substance propyzamide are reported. The context of the peer review was that requested by the European Commission following the submission and evaluation of confirmatory information in the areas of mammalian toxicology and residues. The conclusions were reached on the basis of the evaluation of the representative uses of propyzamide as an herbicide on lettuce and winter oilseed rape. The reliable endpoints concluded as being appropriate for use in regulatory risk assessment, derived from the available studies and/or literature in the dossier peer reviewed, are presented. Concerns are identified. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
