In accordance with the provisions of Article 5 of Regulation (EEC) No 3600/92, the Commission,
by its Regulation (EEC) No 933/94(3), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 2230/95(4),
designated Germany as rapporteur Member State to carry out the assessment of glyphosate on the
basis of the dossiers submitted by the notifiers. In the same Regulation, the Commission specified
furthermore the deadline for the notifiers with regard to the submission to the rapporteur Member
States of the dossiers required under Article 6(2) of Regulation (EEC) No 3600/92, as well as for
other parties with regard to further technical and scientific information; for glyphosate this deadline
was 30 April 1995. For the dossier from Sanachem the deadline was extended to 31 October 1995.
The task force Monsanto/Cheminova as well as Feinchemie Schwebda were considered main data
submitters (glyphosate), with a dossier which did not contain substantial data gaps, taking into
account the supported uses. Sinon EU Corporation (Marubeni), Herbex Produtos Quimicos Ltd,
AgriChem, Aragonesas Agro SA, Industrias Afrasas, Sundat, Calliope, TKI Pinus Race, B. V.
Luxan, I. Pi. Ci. Industrias Prodotti Chimici, Nufarm, Barclay Chemicals, Portman Agrochemicals,

authorities and data on poisoning incidents were provided by the German National Poisoning
Information Centre.
In accordance with the provisions of Article 7(1) of Regulation (EEC) No 3600/92, Germany submitted
on 1 February 1999 to the Commission the report of its examination, hereafter referred to as the draft
assessment report, including, as required, a recommendation concerning the possible inclusion of
glyphosate in Annex I to the Directive. Moreover, in accordance with the same provisions, the
Commission and the Member States received also the summary dossier on glyphosate from Feinchemie
Schwebda and Monsanto/Cheminova and glyphosate trimesium from Syngenta (Zeneca
Agrochemicals), on 2 March 1999.
In accordance with the provisions of Article 7(3) of Regulation (EEC) No 3600/92, the Commission
forwarded for consultation the draft assessment report to all the Member States as well as to Monsanto
being the designated representative of the glyphosate task force  and to  Feinchemie Schwebda and
Syngenta (Zeneca Agrochemicals) being main data submitters, on 11 January 1999.
The Commission organised an intensive consultation of technical experts from a certain number of
Member States, to review the draft assessment report and the comments received thereon (peer
review), in particular on each of the following disciplines:
-
identity and physical /chemical properties ;
-
fate and behaviour in the environment ;
-
ecotoxicology ;
-
mammalian toxicology ;
-
residues and analytical methods ;
-
regulatory questions.
The meetings for this consultation were organised on behalf of the Commission by the Pesticide
Safety Directorate (PSD) in York, United Kingdom, from March to October 1999.
The reports of the peer review (i.e. full report) were circulated, for further consultation, to Member
States on 17 March 2000 (glyphosate) and on 24 March 2000 (glyphosate trimesium) and the main data
submitters on 21 March 2000 (glyphosate) and on 24 March 2000 (glyphosate trimesium) for
comments and further clarification.
In accordance with the provisions of Article 7(3) of Regulation (EEC) No 3600/92, the dossiers, the
draft assessment report, the peer review reports (i.e. full report) and the comments and clarifications on
the remaining issues, received after the peer review were referred to the Standing Committee on Plant
Health, and specialised working groups of this Committee, for final examination, with participation of
experts from the 15 Member States. This final examination took place from December 1999 to June
2001, and was finalised in the meeting of the Standing Committee on 29 June 2001. 
The present review report contains the conclusions of this final examination; given the importance of
the draft assessment report, the peer review reports (i.e. full report) and the comments and clarifications
submitted after the peer review as basic information for the final examination process, these documents
are considered respectively as background documents A, B and C to this review report and are part of
it.
These documents were also submitted to the Scientific Committee for Plants. No specific questions
were addressed to the Committee. Following an exchange of views the Committee noted that there

were no issues that it wished to raise regarding the active substances in the context of a possible
inclusion in Annex I to the Directive5. The Committee reiterated its earlier statements that absence of
comment should only be interpreted as an indication of no obvious reasons necessitating comment.
2. 
Purposes of this review report
This review report, including the background documents and appendices thereto, have been developed
and finalised in support of Commission Directive 2001/99/EC concerning the inclusion of glyphosate in
Annex I to Directive 91/414/EEC, and to assist the Member States in decisions on individual plant
protection products containing glyphosate they have to take in accordance with the provisions of that
Directive, and in particular the provisions of article 4(1) and the uniform principles laid down in Annex
VI.
This review report provides also for the evaluation required under Section A.2.(b) of the above
mentioned uniform principles, as well as under several specific sections of part B of these principles. In
these sections it is provided that Member States, in evaluating applications and granting authorisations,
shall take into account the information concerning the active substance in Annex II of the directive,
submitted for the purpose of inclusion of the active substance in Annex I, as well as the result of the
evaluation of those data. 
In accordance with the provisions of Article 7(6) of Regulation (EEC) No 3600/92, Member States will
keep available or make available this review report for consultation by any interested parties or will
make it available to them on their specific request. Moreover the Commission will send a copy of this
review report (not including the background documents) to all operators having notified for this active
substance under Article 4(1) of this Regulation.
The information in this review report is, at least partly, based on information, which is confidential
and/or protected under the provisions of Directive 91/414/EEC. It is therefore recommended that this
review report would not be accepted to support any registration outside the context of Directive
91/414/EEC, e.g. in third countries, for which the applicant has not demonstrated to have regulatory
access to the information on which this review report is based.
3.
Overall conclusion in the context of Directive 91/414/EEC
The overall conclusion from the evaluation is that it may be expected that plant protection products
containing glyphosate will fulfil the safety requirements laid down in Article 5(1)(a) and (b) of
Directive 91/414/EEC. This conclusion is however subject to compliance with the particular
requirements in sections 4, 5, 6 and 7 of this report, as well as to the implementation of the provisions
of Article 4(1) and the uniform principles laid down in Annex VI of Directive 91/414/EEC, for each
glyphosate containing plant protection product for which Member States will grant or review the
authorisation. 
Furthermore, these conclusions were reached within the framework of the following uses, which were
proposed and supported by the main data submitter:
-
herbicide against terrestrial annual weeds, perennial weeds and shrubs in fruit, vegetables,
forestry, grassland, ornamentals and arable crops as well as non-crop uses6.
                                                
5 Minutes of the plenary of the Scientific Committee on Plants from March 7, 2001

- 5 -
Extension of the use pattern beyond those described above will require an evaluation at Member State
level in order to establish whether the proposed extensions of use can satisfy the requirements of Article
4(1) and of the uniform principles laid down in Annex VI of Directive 91/414/EEC. 
With particular regard to residues, the review has established that the residues arising from the
proposed uses, consequent on application consistent with good plant protection practice, have no
harmful effects on human or animal health. The Theoretical Maximum Daily Intake (TMDI; excluding
water and products of animal origin) for a 60 kg adult is 15 % of the Acceptable Daily Intake (ADI),
based on the FAO/WHO European Diet (August 1994). Additional intake from water and products of
animal origin are not expected to give rise to intake problems.
The review has identified several acceptable exposure scenarios for operators, workers and
bystanders, which require however to be confirmed for each plant protection product in accordance
with the relevant sections of the above mentioned uniform principles.
The review has also concluded that under the proposed and supported conditions of use there are no
unacceptable effects on the environment, as provided for in Article 4 (1) (b) (iv) and (v) of Directive
91/414/EEC, provided that certain conditions are taken into account as detailed in section 6 of this
report.
4.
Identity and Physical/chemical properties
The main identity and the physical/chemical properties of glyphosate/glyphosate trimesium are given in
Appendix I.
The active substance shall comply with the FAO specification and there seems not to be reasons for
deviating from that specification; the FAO specification is given in Appendix I of this report. 
The review has established that for the active substance notified by the main data submitters
Feinchemie Schwebda, Monsanto  and Syngenta (Zeneca Agrochemicals), none of the
manufacturing impurities considered are, on the basis of information currently available, of
toxicological or environmental concern. Regarding glyphosate, the Syngenta product was evaluated
by FAO and WHO and the decision on the proposal to the FAO Group on Specifications to accept
the Syngenta product as equivalent will be taken at the meeting of the FAO Group end of June
2001.
In accordance with the provisions of Article 13(5) of Directive 91/414/EEC, Germany is also
satisfied, on the basis of the information currently available, that the substance notified by the other
data submitters Sinon EU Corporation, Herbex Produtos Quimicos Ltd, AgriChem, Aragonesas
Agro SA, Industrias Afrasas, Sundat, TKI Pinus Race, B. V. Luxan, I. Pi. Ci. Industrias Prodotti
Chimici, Barclay Chemicals, Portman Agrochemicals, Alkaloida Europe and Dow AgroScience do
not, in the meaning of Article 13(2) and (5) of the Directive, differ significantly in degree of purity
and nature of impurities from the composition registered in the dossiers submitted by the main data
submitters. Only the substances of Nufarm and Calliope deviated significantly from the impurity
profiles of Monsanto/Cheminova.

5.
Endpoints and related information
In order to facilitate Member States, in granting or reviewing authorisations, to apply adequately the
provisions of Article 4(1) of Directive 91/414/EEC and the uniform principles laid down in Annex VI
of that Directive, the most important endpoints as identified during the re-evaluation process are set out
under point 1 above. These endpoints are listed in Appendix II. 
6.
Particular conditions to be taken into account on short term basis by Member States in
relation to the granting of authorisations of plant protection products containing
glyphosate

On the basis of the proposed and supported uses, the following particular issues have been identified as
requiring particular and short term attention from all Member States, in the framework of any
authorisations to be granted, varied or withdrawn, as appropriate: 
-
Groundwater: Member States must pay particular attention to the protection of the
groundwater in vulnerable areas, in particular with respect to non-crop uses.
7.
List of studies to be generated
No further studies were identified which were at this stage considered necessary in relation to the
inclusion of glyphosate in Annex I under the current inclusion conditions. Some endpoints may still
require the generation or submission of additional studies to be submitted to the Member States in order
to ensure authorisations for use under certain conditions. 
Extension of the use pattern beyond the uses described in Section 3 above may require the generation or
submission of additional studies to the Member States. This will be the case in particular for uses of the
substance related to the control of aquatic weeds.
8.
Information on studies with claimed data protection
For information of any interested parties, Appendix III gives information about the studies for which
the main data submitter have claimed data protection and which during the re-evaluation process were
considered as essential with a view to Annex I inclusion. This information is only given to facilitate the
operation of the provisions of Article 13 of Directive 91/414/EEC in the Member States. It is based on
the best information available to the Commission services at the time this review report was prepared;
but it does not prejudice any rights or obligations of  Member States or operators with regard to its uses
in the implementation of the provisions of Article 13 of the Directive 91/414/EEC neither does it
commit the Commission.
9.
Updating of this review report
The technical information in this report may require to be updated from time to time in order to take
account of technical and scientific developments as well as of the results of the examination of any
information referred to the Commission in the framework of Articles 7, 10 or 11 of Directive

- 7 -
91/414/EEC. Such adaptations will be examined and finalised in the Standing Committee on Plant
Health, in connection with any amendment of the inclusion conditions for glyphosate in Annex I of the
Directive.
