Dear Members of the Appeal Committee,
On the 14th of October, ScoPAFF did not give a green light to the one-year prolongation of Glyphosate. However, the EU Commission proposed its prolongation (COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) …/... of XXX amending Implementing Regulation (EU) No 540/2011 as regards the extension of the approval period of the active substance glyphosate). Glyphosate is currently approved in the EU until 15 December 2022 and earlier this year EFSA announced the postponement of its conclusions on glyphosate by one year. The EU Commission appealed and the Appeal Committee convened for a possible vote on the 15th of November 2022.
