The AEB proposed to amend the title of Section 1.4 and Section 2.30, specifying that these acts will not apply to all plant protection products, but only to those containing persistent organic pollutants.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs supported this position of the AEB and officially sent it to the address of the Eurasian Economic Commission.
