[F1ANNEX IV U.K. STANDARD PHRASES FOR SPECIAL RISKS FOR HUMANS OR THE ENVIRONMENT AS REFERRED TO IN ARTICLE 16

INTRODUCTION U.K.

The following additional standard phrases are defined to supplement the phrases provided for by Directive 1999/45/EC, which applies to plant-protection products. The provisions of that Directive shall also be used for plant-protection products containing micro-organisms or viruses as active substances. The labelling of products containing these active substances shall also reflect the provisions concerning dermal and respiratory sensitisation testing, which are laid down in Annex IIb and Annex IIIb to Directive 91/414/EEC.

The harmonised phrases provide the basis for complementary and specific instructions for use and are, therefore, without prejudice to other elements of Article 16, in particular Article 16(1)(k) to (n) and 16(4).

2. Attribution criteria for standard phrases for special risks U.K.

2.1. Attribution criteria for standard phrases related to humans U.K.

RSh 1 Toxic by eye contact. U.K.

The phrase shall be assigned where an eye irritation test according to Annex IIIA point 7.1.5 has resulted in overt signs of systemic toxicity (e.g. related to cholinesterase inhibition) or mortality among the animals tested, which is likely to be attributable to absorption of the active substance through the mucous membranes of the eye. The risk phrase shall also be applied if there is evidence in humans for systemic toxicity after eye contact.

Eye protection should be specified in these cases, as outlined in the general provisions of Annex V.

RSh 2 May cause photosensitisation. U.K.

The phrase shall be assigned where there is clear evidence from experimental systems or documented human exposure that products show photosensitising effects. The phrase shall also be applied to products containing a given active substance or formulation ingredient, which shows photosensitising effects in humans if the product contains this photosensitising component at a concentration of 1 % (w/w) or higher.

Personal protective measures should be specified in these cases, as outlined in the general provisions of Annex V.

RSh 3 Contact with vapour causes burns to skin and eyes and contact with liquid causes freezing. U.K.

The phrase shall be assigned to plant-protection products being formulated as liquefied gas, where appropriate (e.g. preparations of methyl bromide).

Personal protective measures should be specified in these cases, as outlined in the general provisions of Annex V.

In cases where R34 or 35 are applied according to Directive 1999/45/EC, the phrase shall not be used.

2.2. Attribution criteria for standard phrases related to the environment U.K.
