Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2022/1646 Article 5

National randomised surveillance plan for production in the Member States

Article 5

Member States shall prepare a national randomised surveillance plan for the control of production in the Member States, ensuring random monitoring for a wide range of substances. The national randomised surveillance plan for production in each Member State shall contain the following: (a) the list of combinations of substances and species, products and matrices in accordance with Annex IV to Delegated Regulation (EU) 2022/1644; (b) the sampling strategy as decided by the Member State set out in accordance with Annex V to Delegated Regulation (EU) 2022/1644; (c) the actual sampling frequencies as decided by the Member State taking into account the minimum sampling frequencies prescribed in Annex II to this Regulation; (d) the detailed information referred to in Article 7(1). In accordance with the requirements for methods of analysis provided for in Implementing Regulation (EU) 2021/808, Member State shall use analytical methods for the analysis of pharmacologically active substances authorised as veterinary medicinal products or as feed additives and of prohibited or unauthorised pharmacologically active substances and residues thereof in products of animal origin, which provide quantitative or semi-quantitative results, including when these residues are identified and quantified at levels below the MRL. Member States shall include reporting requirements for the controls on the use of authorised substances, which ensure the reporting of all concentrations at or above the detection capability for screening (‘CCβ’) of the method, while ensuring that the lowest CCβ, which is reasonably achievable, is obtained for the methods, which are used to perform the screening analyses. For testing carried out with confirmatory methods only, all quantifiable results shall be reported. In case of use of targeted and non-targeted screening methods, Member States shall report on the use and the findings of these analytical methods.
