Following the public consultation held in July 2022, EFSA has finalised and published the revision of the guidance on the risk assessment of plant protection products on bees (Apis mellifera, Bombus spp. and solitary bees). The guidance and its supporting documents can be downloaded from the links below.
As a next step, the European Commission will now work with Member States towards endorsement of the document in the Standing Committee for Plants, Animals, Food and Feed.
A public information session about the revised guidance will be held by EFSA on 13 June 2023.
