(i) continue working on Classes B Primary food commodities of animal origin and E Processed food commodities of animal origin of the Classification of Food and Feed (CXA 4-1989) and prepare tables of representative commodities;
(ii) consider the proposals on the portion of the commodity to which maximum residue limits apply, and which is analyzed for Group 006 Assorted tropical and sub-tropical fruits - inedible peel and Group 023 Oilseeds; and
(iii) review the Guidelines on portion of commodities to which MRLs apply and which is analyzed (CXG 41-1993) with a comparison to the Classification of Food and Feed (CXA 4-1989) to consider revocation of CXG41 to avoid coexistence of the two documents addressing the same provisions. The EWG should consider any provisions from CXG41 that could still be integrated into the revised Classification and make a proposal for consideration by CCPR54.
