The dates for the EURL workshops in 2021 have been fixed.
In 2021 2 PTs will be organised:
Ø PT1 – Multi-Screening and Confirmation of Chloramphenicol Residues in Meat and considering the new RPA of 0.15 µg/kg (March-May 2021)
Ø PT2 – Multi-Screening and Confirmation of Group B1 Authorized Antimicrobial Residues in Milk (October-December 2021)
Or PT2 could be possibly replaced by a collaborative study you should receive more details during the period March-May : Ø COLLAB TEST – Collaborative study for LC-MSMS / LC-HRMSMS instruments for Multi-Screening / Confirmation of Group B1-B2 Authorized VMP Residues in Extracts of Milk and Meat (October-December 2021)
As a consequence of the EURL evaluation, the Commission stated that EURLs with overlapping or similar responsibilities should agree upon their work more closely. The agreement with the Commission is also indispensable. For this reason at least one meeting of the 4 EURLs for residues and a representative of the European Commission is necessary per year. Moreover, an additional exchange among the EURLs with respect to an agreed strategy, increased efficiency and exploiting synergy effects is required.
