THE ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT COMMITTEE, in pursuance of Articles 4 and 17 of the Pesticides (Jersey) Law 1991, orders as follows –

Commencement [see endnotes]

1        Interpretation

(1)     In this Order, unless the context otherwise requires –

“food” includes cereals intended for human consumption listed in Schedules 1 and 2;

“Guide to Codex Recommendations Concerning Pesticide Residues” means the Codex Alimentarius Commission documents CAC PR5 1984 and CAC PR6 1984 of the Food and Agriculture Organisation of the United Nations and the World Health Organisation joint Food Standards Programme;

“maximum residue level” in the case of any food, in relation to any pesticide used in connection therewith, means the figure obtained at the point in Schedule 1 or 2 where a line drawn vertically from the reference to the pesticide intersects with a line drawn horizontally from the reference to that food;

“pesticide” means a pesticide specified in Schedule 1, 2 or 3;

“residue” in relation to a pesticide means one or more of the substances specified in an entry in column 2 of Schedule 3 opposite the entry of that pesticide in column 1 of that Schedule.

(2)     Any reference in a Schedule to a food, figure or pesticide includes any qualifying words relating to that food, figure or pesticide in that Schedule.

2        Maximum residue levels

No person may leave, or cause to be left –

(a)     in any food specified in Schedule 1; or

(b)     in any food specified in Schedule 2,

a level of residue exceeding any maximum residue level applicable to such food specified in that Schedule.

3        Seizure or disposal of food

If any food has in it a residue level in excess of any maximum residue level relating to that food, the Minister shall have power –

(a)     to seize or dispose of the consignment containing that food or any part of it, or to require that some other person shall dispose of it; or

(b)     to direct some other person to take such remedial action as appears to the Minister to be necessary.

4        Sampling

The level of residue in a food shall be determined as far as practicable in accordance with the procedures laid down in Parts 5 and 6 of the Guide to Codex Recommendations Concerning Pesticide Residues.

5        Citation

This Order may be cited as the Pesticides (Maximum Residue Levels in Food) (Jersey) Order 1991.

Table of Endnote References



[1] Paddy rice.

[2] Other cereals do not include rice.

[3] Levels are measured on fat, except in the case of foods with a fat content of 10% or less by weight.  In these cases the residue is related to the total weight of the boned foodstuff, and the MRL is 1/10 of the value given in the table, but must be no less that 0.01 mg/kg.

[4] Sheepmeat only.

[5] All meat except sheepmeat.

[6] These levels are for fresh raw cow’s milk and fresh whole cream cow’s milk expressed on the whole milk

[7] For preserved, concentrated or sweetened cow’s milk; for raw milk and whole cream milk of another animal origin; and for butter, cheese or curd whether made from cow’s milk or other milk or a combination, the following levels apply:

-          if the fat content is less that 2% by weight, the MRL is taken as half that set for raw milk and whole cream milk;

-          if the fat content is 2% or more by weight, the MRL is expressed in mg/kg of fat and is set at 25 times that set for raw milk and whole cream milk.

[8] Paddy rice.

[9] Other cereals do not include rice.

[10] Levels are measured on fat, except in the case of foods with a fat content of 10% or less by weight.  In these cases the residue is related to the total weight of the boned foodstuff, and the MRL is 1/10 of the value given in the table, but must be no less that 0.01 mg/kg.

[11] These levels are for fresh raw cow’s milk and fresh whole cream cow’s milk expressed on the whole milk.

[12] For preserved, concentrated or sweetened cow’s milk; for raw milk and whole cream milk of another animal origin; and for butter, cheese or curd whether made from cow’s milk or other milk or a combination, the following levels apply:

-          if the fat content is less that 2% by weight, the MRL is taken as half that set for raw milk and whole cream milk;

-          if the fat content is 2% or more by weight, the MRL is expressed in mg/kg of fat and is set at 25 times that set for raw milk and whole cream milk.

[13] Birds’ eggs in shell (other than eggs for hatching) and whole egg products and egg yolk products (whether fresh, dried or otherwise prepared).

[14] Imazalil:         5mg/kg applies to whole fruit;

                                0.1mg/kg applies to fruit without peel

[15] Imazalil:         5mg/kg applies to whole fruit;

                                0.1mg/kg applies to fruit without peel



[1]                                     This Order has been amended by the States of Jersey (Amendments and Construction Provisions No. 3) (Jersey) Regulations 2005. The amendments replace all references to a Committee of the States of Jersey with a reference to a Minister of the States of Jersey, and remove and add defined terms appropriately, consequentially upon the move from a committee system of government to a ministerial system of government
