Division 2.8.4

Where there is a possibility of arthropods other than bees being exposed, no authorisation shall be granted if:

1. (a)

   the micro-organism is pathogenic to arthropods other than bees;

2. (b)

   in case of toxic effects due to components in the plant protection product such as relevant metabolites/toxins, unless it is clearly established through an appropriate risk assessment that under field conditions there is no unacceptable impact on those organisms after use of the plant protection product in accordance with the proposed conditions of use. Any claims for selectivity and proposals for use in integrated pest management systems shall be substantiated by appropriate data.
