- The Federal Institute for Risk Assessment (BfR) has reviewed the monograph of the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) on the health assessment of glyphosate and given its evaluation to the Federal Office of Consumer Protection and Food Safety (BVL) within the specified timeframe. In the next stage of the process, the BVL forwarded the German evaluation to the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) which will in turn send it to all EU member states for consultation. By doing so, it will be achievable to make the review of the IARC monograph as part of the reassessment of glyphosate within the scope of the EU examination of active substances. The evaluation of the IARC monograph will be finally discussed and coordinated at a Pesticide Risk Assessment Unit (PRAS) Meeting of experts at the EFSA under consideration of all comments from the EU member states so that the result of the joint consultation can flow into the final EFSA recommendation to the EU Commission.
