The Australian Pesticides and Veterinary Medicines Authority (APVMA) is considering an application for registration of the product Checkmate CRS, a Slow Release Generator (SR) formulation containing 716 g/L (70 mg/dispenser) of the new active constituent, rescalure. The product is intended for the use in mating disruption of Aonidiella aurantii Maskell (California red scale) in citrus and any other crops where this species may be a pest.

The APVMA is able to consider comments relating to the legislative grounds, including:

- residues in food
- efficacy and target crop safety.
