据澳新食品标准局（FSANZ）消息，7月20日澳新食品标准局公布M1016号提案，拟修改澳新食品标准法典中某些农药的的最高残留量（MRL）。
澳新食品标准局将于2018年9月就相关草案征求意见，公众咨询期限从2018年12月至2019年2月。本申请有望于2019年6月得到全面批准。
部分原文如下：
The Proposal will consider varying certain MRLs in the Australia New Zealand Food Standards Code （the Code） to align with those established by Codex or trading partner standards for the requested agvet chemicals for food import purposes.
This is a routine process that allows the sale of imported food commodities with legitimate residues of agvet chemicals used in their production. The use is consistent with international regulations for the safe and effective use of the agvet chemicals based on good agricultural practice.
This Proposal also includes consideration of MRL variations requested by the Australian Pesticides and Veterinary Medicines Authority （APVMA）。 The APVMA requests are predominantly deletions, however some reductions or additions of MRLs are included. There may also be inclusions of new food commodities in Schedule 20, following the completion of chemical reviews.
