Abstract

Abstract: The conclusions of EFSA following the peer review of the initial risk assessments carried out by the competent authority of the rapporteur Member State Austria for the pesticide active substance sodium hydrogen carbonate are reported. The context of the peer review was that required by Regulation (EC) No 1107/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council. The conclusions were reached on the basis of the evaluation of the representative use of sodium hydrogen carbonate as a fungicide on grapes. The reliable endpoints, appropriate for use in regulatory risk assessment are presented.
