Q&A for the Guidelines
You do not have to submit any data to KFDA if you havesubmitted toxicity and residue data to RDA to register newpesticides or additional crops. Accordingly, there is nodifference from the existing method.However, please note that the time to review the establishmentof MRLs of pesticides can be shortened if you submit data toboth RDA and KFDA at the same time when you considersubmitting data to RDA.
Q: Do we have to submit data to both Rural DevelopmentAdministration(RDA) and Food and Drug Administration toestablish MRLs of pesticides?

If you want to change the MRLs for the currently registeredpesticides, the establishment, change and/or exemption ofthe MRLs can be done when you submit the related data toKFDA and those data are recognized as valid.If you want to change the MRLs for usage and production,the establishment, change and/or exemption of the MRLscan be done if it is considered as valid when you submit therelated data to KFDA which will discuss it with RDA.
Q&A for the Guidelines
Q: Is it possible for a company to apply for the establish-ment, change and/or exemption of standards individually
to KFDA without going through RDA?
If you want to change the MRLs for the currently registeredpesticides, the establishment, change and/or exemption ofthe MRLs can be done when you submit the related data toKFDA and those data are recognized as valid.If you want to change the MRLs for usage and production,the establishment, change and/or exemption of the MRLscan be done if it is considered as valid when you submit therelated data to KFDA which will discuss it with RDA.
-> attachment 4
Q&A for the Guidelines
Q: It is necessary to clarify data to be submitted andstandards for exemptions in case of toxicity becausethe respiratory toxicity, nervous toxicity and repetitivetoxicity among others belong to certain types of pesti-cides.
The submission of data can be omitted if you submit thevalid reasons when it is recognized as unnecessary tosubmit data considering foreign regulations and examplesamong others.
-> attachment 4
Information about impurities shall be submitted if there isany concern of harm to health due to the remainingimpurities in any food because some pesticides include theundesired impurities during the manufacturing of crudematerials.Example) Dioxin as the impurity during the manufacturingprocess of 2, 4, 5-T.
Q&A for the Guidelines
Q: What does information about impurities in the productmean?
Information about impurities shall be submitted if there isany concern of harm to health due to the remainingimpurities in any food because some pesticides include theundesired impurities during the manufacturing of crudematerials.Example) Dioxin as the impurity during the manufacturingprocess of 2, 4, 5-T.

We are planning to ensure that the announcement of data can bedone generally within 180 days for the additional registration ofcrops, alleviation of standards and/or exemptions, and that thedata review and administrative procedures can be completedwithin 210 days if the time has to be extended because anyopinion is submitted due to the preliminary administrationannouncement. However, it is difficult to shorten the time toestablish the standards because it takes a long time to develop thetesting methods for the applicable pesticides in case of any newpesticides.
Q&A for the Guidelines
Q: Could the time to establish the MRLs be shortenedas an enormous deal of economic damages to thecompany might be caused if the review time takeslonger?

We will make efforts to minimize the number of copies necessaryfor the review when the related regulations are established andenforced, although the number of copies necessary for the reviewshould be submitted by the company due to no regulation on therelated charges as of now. Korea KFDA will ensure no leakage ofany data due to CD and/or DVD which any company submit to usunder our responsibility.
Q&A for the Guidelines
Q: It is necessary to improve the submission methodbecause two copies of toxic data and five copies ofresidue data seem to be not only too many to besubmitted, but also vulnerable in security in case ofCD and/or DVD.
