(2)  The said inclusion in Annex I was based on assessment of the information submitted concerning proposed use as fungicide on cereals and vines. Information relating to uses on cereals and vines has been submitted by certain Member States in accordance with the requirements of Article 4(1)(f) of Directive 91/414/EEC. The information available has been reviewed and is sufficient to fix certain maximum residue levels. (3)  Where no Community maximum residue level or provisional MRL exists Member States shall establish a national provisional maximum residue level in accordance with Article 4(1)(f) of Directive 91/414[EEC before the authorisation may be granted. (4) At the inclusion in Annex I to Directive 91/414/EEC the technical and scientific evaluation of spiroxamine has been finalised on 12 May 1999 in the format of the Commission review report for spiroxamine. In this review report the acceptable daily intake (ADI) for spiroxamine was set at 0,025 mg/kg bw/day. The lifetime exposure of consumers of food products treated with spiroxa- mine has been assessed and evaluated in accordance with the procedures and practices used within the European Community, taking account of guidelines published by the World Health Organ- isation (%) and it has been calculated that the maximum residue levels fixed in this Directive do not give rise to an exceedence of this ADL O] L 221, 7.8.1986, p. 37.
