Abstract
The aim of this working group is to continue the work of field and semi-field group that had reported at the last Bee Protection Group meeting in Bucharest (2008). This had resulted in the latest revision of the EPPO 170 guidelines (2010), with particular attention being paid to the higher tier (cage and field) studies. One of the primary considerations in the revision exercise had been to maintain a balance between providing sufficient information to enable suitable studies to be conducted but maintaining flexibility (not too prescriptive) to ensure that the specific requirements of all studies could be addressed. During the revision of the EPPO 170 guidelines, a number of specific issues were identified that went beyond the scope of the current exercise but were considered to need further work. These could generally be characterised as the ‘acceptability of effects in the field’.
