What else in your programme already covers this

This control maps to 2 controls across 1 other frameworks. If you already hold one of them, the evidence you collected for it is the starting point here rather than new work.

  • FV-GFS 32.07.02 FV-GFS 32.07.02 A risk assessment for all registered products has been completed and the maximum residue level (MRL) requirements of the applicable market(s) are met.
  • FV-GFS 32.07.03 FV-GFS 32.07.03 The correct maximum residue level (MRL) sampling and testing procedures are followed.

Every mapping shown was judged rather than inferred from wording similarity, and the ones that failed review are published too. See the coverage reports and what was rejected.
