We do also have a summary of post 2009 research but can’t claim it is comprehensive; I can circulate that tomorrow if people are interested.<br><br>For ICPBR members to focus on the scientific data is of course correct, but also significant and relevant to the ICPBR are the regulatory pesticide authorisation processes and the scientific quality and breadth of risk assessment of those processes.<br><br>Currently the risk assessment processes do not include any assessment of the effects of insecticides on wild pollinators, hence formal pesticide approval processes (such as the EU DAR) cannot assure us that the approved chemicals are therefore environmentally safe. This is not just the opinion of Buglife, it is also the opinion of Defra/Fera and the European Food Safety Authority.<br><br>The 2008 Fera/Defra report ‘Are pesticide risk assessments for honeybees protective of other pollinators’ states that:-<br><br>“There are many cases where species are several orders of magnitude more sensitive on a per individual or weight basis than honeybees, e.g. Lepidopteran larvae. Therefore more detailed information on the toxicity of pesticides to a range of species and life stages is required to assess the sensitivity of wild pollinators relative to honeybees.”<br><br>“Given the wide range of plants species dependent on non-Apis [non-Honeybee] pollinators a reduction in wild pollinators is likely to have knock on effects on the plant species pollinated by them, resulting in less forage.” <br><br>“More detailed toxicity and exposure information for a range of species is required for a robust assessment of the risk posed.”<br><br></span><a href="http://randd.defra.gov.uk/Default.aspx?Menu=Menu&Module=More&Location=None&Completed=0&ProjectID=15390" target="_blank"><span lang=EN-US style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>http://randd.defra.gov.uk/Default.aspx?Menu=Menu&Module=More&Location=None&Completed=0&ProjectID=15390</span></a><span lang=EN-US style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:black'><br><br>The very recent ‘Scientific Opinion on the science behind the development of a risk assessment of Plant Protection Products on bees (Apis mellifera, Bombus spp. and solitary bees)’ European Food Safety Authority (2012) report states:-<br><br>“Larvae of solitary bees consume large mass provisions with unprocessed pollen thus, compared with honey bee larvae, they are more exposed to residues in pollen. Moreover, bumble bees and solitary bees may be exposed to a larger extent via contact with nesting material (soil or plants) compared to honey bees, suggesting the need for a separate risk assessment for bumble bees and solitary bees.”<br><br></span><a href="http://www.efsa.europa.eu/en/efsajournal/pub/2668.htm" target="_blank"><span lang=EN-US style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>http://www.efsa.europa.eu/en/efsajournal/pub/2668.htm</span></a><span lang=EN-US style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:black'><br><br>I hope most ICPBR members can support the call for introducing a range of standard tests of pesticides across a range of non-target pollinator groups.
