Japan: Japan Notifies WTO of Revised Monepantel Residue Standards
On March 27, 2019, Japan notified the World Trade Organization of draft amendments to the maximum residue levels (MRL) for the veterinary drug, Monepantel, via G/SPS/N/JPN/626. Japan adopted these MRLs on January 22, 2019. There will be no public comment period established for this proposal as this proposal relaxes the regulation. However, interested U.S. parties are welcomed to share their comments and/or concerns with USDA’s enquiry point (us.spsenquirypoint@fas.usda.gov).
