The conclusions of the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) following the peer review of the initial risk assessments carried out by the competent authority of the rapporteur Member State Austria for the pesticide active substance cyclaniliprole and the assessment of applications for maximum residue levels (MRLs) are reported. The context of the peer review was that required by Regulation (EC) No 1107/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council. The conclusions were reached on the basis of the evaluation of the representative uses of cyclaniliprole as an insecticide on apples, pears, peaches, apricots, nectarines, plums, grapes (table and wine) and potatoes and on glasshouse tomatoes, peppers and aubergines. MRLs were assessed in addition to the uses above in field Brassica vegetables, tomatoes, peppers, and aubergines. The reliable endpoints, appropriate for use in regulatory risk assessment and the proposed MRLs, are presented. Missing information identified as being required by the regulatory framework is listed. Concerns are identified.
