I want to vary the use of an agricultural product to include a food producing crop or situation (Item 14)

Varying the use of an agricultural or veterinary chemical product to include a new use is also known as an ‘extension of use’. This variation is made via:

  • Item 11 – full assessment fixed fee application
  • Item 12 – no technical assessment is required
  • Item 14 – technical modular application—all applications not described in any of items 11 to 13A.

Most ‘extension of use’ variations are likely to be made as Item 14 applications.

I want to vary a withholding period and/or export interval

An application to vary a withholding period and/or export interval statement must contain sufficient information to demonstrate that the proposed label changes will:

(i) not result in an exceedance of established maximum residue limits (MRLs), or
(ii) support any proposed changes to MRLs.

The product, once varied as proposed, must continue to meet the safety (section 5A), efficacy (section 5B) and trade (section 5C) criteria.
