Capacity Building for National Authorities on Article 1.8.6. (EU) 2018/848
This online capacity building event is aimed at national authroities and control bodies across the EU.
Capacity building for national authorities across Europe
Conditions for the use of “plant reproductive material authorised in accordance
with point 1.8.6”
Article 1.8.6 concerns plant reproductive material produced from non-organic plant reproductive material that can be marketed as organic plant reproductive material under certain conditions (so-called “plant reproductive material authorised in accordance with point 1.8.6.”).
According to the article, the competent authorities of the EU Member States have to report to the European Commission on the authorisations granted for this material by 30 June each year, for the first time by 30 June 2023. Thus, the capacity building event is intended to address questions, clear out uncertainties and facilitate the exchange between EU Member States and with the European Commission regarding the legal act.
The exchange with authorities and control bodies of several EU Member States so far has shown that there are major uncertainties regarding Article 1.8.6. of the Regulation (EU) 2018/848 therefore LiveSeeding in collaboration with FiBL Germany and IFOAM will be answering questions.
In preparation for the meeting, please consult the European Commission’s FAQ on the new organic regulation
Please send your questions in advance.
