DDT is not authorised for use as a plant protection product in the Community.

The Secretariat shall maintain the DDT Register.

A DDT Register is hereby established and shall be available to the public.

(a) The production and use of DDT and the conditions set out in paragraph 2;

In the event that a Party not listed in the DDT Register determines that it requires DDT for disease vector control, it shall notify the Secretariat as soon as possible in order to have its name added forthwith to the DDT Register.

(b) The availability, suitability and implementation of the alternatives to DDT; and

A Party may, at any time, withdraw its name from the DDT Registry upon written notification to the Secretariat.

(i) Development of regulatory and other mechanisms to ensure that DDT use is restricted to disease vector control;

With the goal of reducing and ultimately eliminating the use of DDT, the Conference of the Parties shall encourage:

The production and use of DDT shall be eliminated except for Parties that have notified the Secretariat of their intention to produce and/or use it.

(a) Each Party using DDT to develop and implement an action plan as part of the implementation plan specified in Article 7. That action plan shall include:

Each Party that produces and/or uses DDT shall restrict such production and/or use for disease vector control in accordance with the World Health Organization recommendations and guidelines on the use of DDT and when locally safe, effective and affordable alternatives are not available to the Party in question.

Viable alternatives to DDT shall pose less risk to human health and the environment, be suitable for disease control based on conditions in the Parties in question and be supported with monitoring data.

(b) The Parties, within their capabilities, to promote research and development of safe alternative chemical and non-chemical products, methods and strategies for Parties using DDT, relevant to the conditions of those countries and with the goal of decreasing the human and economic burden of disease.

Commencing at its first meeting, and at least every three years thereafter, the Conference of the Parties shall, in consultation with the World Health Organization, evaluate the continued need for DDT for disease vector control on the basis of available scientific, technical, environmental and economic information, including:

Every three years, each Party that uses DDT shall provide to the Secretariat and the World Health Organization information on the amount used, the conditions of such use and its relevance to that Party's disease management strategy, in a format to be decided by the Conference of the Parties in consultation with the World Health Organization.

The limit values set out in Annex II to Directive 86/280/EEC, as amended, relating to DDT, aldrin, dieldrin, endrin and isodrin shall apply from the date of accession.

Monitoring data for DDT in eggs in Community Member States and in Norway indicate that this maximum level may be reduced.

A maximum residue level for DDT in birds' eggs and egg yolks of 0,1 mg/kg was set in Community legislation by Council Directive 93/57/EEC(13) to allow for the possibility that residual environmental contamination may give rise to DDT residues in eggs.

preparations consisting of an active product (such as DDT) mixed with other materials and put up in aerosol containers ready for use

In Annex II, in the table in Part A, in the column relating to birds' eggs and egg yolks, the value of 0,1 mg/kg for DDT shall be replaced by the value 0,05 mg/kg.

Whereas, for the same reasons, it seems desirable to bring the Directive up to date by adding provisions relating to further pesticides whose residues may occur in fruit and vegetables, namely, bromophos-ethyl, bromopropylate, captafol, chlorpropham, chlorbufam, chlorfenvinphos, chlormequat, DDT, diazinon, dichlofluanid, dichlorvos, dicofol, dioxathion, diquat, fentin, heptachlor, methyl bromide, paraquat, pyrethrins, triallate, vamidothion and chinomethionat;

Whereas in order to establish mandatory maximum levels of pesticide residues at Community level it is necessary to transfer provisions from Directive 76/895/EEC to Directive 90/642/EEC relating to the pesticides amitrole, atrazine, binapacryl, bromophos-ethyl, captafol, DDT, dichlorprop, dinoseb, dioxathion, endrin, ethylene dibromide, fenchlorphos, heptachlor, maleic hydrazide, methyl bromide (except for certain products), paraquat, TEPP, 2,4,5-T and toxaphene;
