(7) Znanstvenemu odboru za rastline so bili za ločena posvetovanja predloženi tudi poročilo o beta-ciflutrinu ter ciflutrinu in nadaljnje informacije o obeh snoveh. Od Odbora se je zahtevalo, da izrazi svoje mnenje o primerni oceni tveganja zastrupitve pri vnosu s hrano, ki se bo uporabljala, in potrdi, da razpoložljivi toksikološki podatki podpirajo uporabo le v rastlinjakih in za obdelavo semen. Odbor je v svojih mnenjih fn fn predlagal, da je treba poleg ocene dolgoročnega tveganja zastrupitve pri vnosu s hrano, ki se za fitofarmacevtska sredstva izvaja rutinsko, pri beta-ciflutrinu in ciflutrinu opraviti tudi oceno kratkoročnega tveganja zastrupitve pri vnosu s hrano, da se ocenijo njune morebitne nevrotoksične lastnosti. Odbor je potrdil, da se uporabe, kot so obloge semen in uporabe v rastlinjakih (razen kadar se uporabljajo koristni členonožci), lahko obravnavajo kakor varne za neciljne kopenske in vodne organizme zaradi posebnih okoliščin teh nanosov in imobilnosti beta-ciflutrina in ciflutrina v tleh. Razen tega Odbor podpira sklepe, ki so jih države članice sprejele med ocenjevanjem, in sicer da se nanašanje beta-ciflutrina in ciflutrina s škropljenjem na polju ni pokazalo za dovolj varno glede na meril iz Priloge VI k Direktivi 91/414/EGS. Potem ko je Znanstveni odbor za rastline izrazil svoje mnenje, je predložil oceno kratkoročnega tveganja zastrupitve pri vnosu s hrano in jo obravnaval z državami članicami. Ugotovljeno je bilo, da kratkoročni vnos ostankov najverjetneje ne bo presegel sprejemljivih meja.
(7) The report on beta-cyfluthrin and on cyfluthrin and further information concerning both substances were also submitted to the Scientific Committee on Plants for separate consultations. The Committee was asked to comment on the appropriate dietary risk assessment to be used and to confirm that the available ecotoxicological data supports uses only in glasshouses and for seed treatment. In its opinions, the Committee suggested that in addition to a long-term dietary intake risk assessment, as routinely carried out for plant protection products, beta-cyfluthrin and cyfluthrin should also undergo a short-term acute dietary risk assessment to evaluate their potential neurotoxicity properties. The Committee confirmed that uses as seed dressing and in greenhouses (except where beneficial arthropods are used) can be considered safe for non-target terrestrial and aquatic organisms, due to the specific circumstances of these applications and the immobility of beta-cyfluthrin and cyfluthrin in soil. The Committee furthermore supports the conclusions reached during the evaluation by the Member States that field spray applications of beta-cyfluthrin and cyfluthrin have not shown to be sufficiently safe under the criteria required by Annex VI to Directive 91/414/EEC. Following the opinion of the Scientific Committee on Plants the short term dietary risk assessment was subsequently provided and discussed with the Member States. It was concluded that the short-term intake of residues is not likely to exceed acceptable limits.
