Annex CB 5B Mandatory Minimum Criteria of a Residue Monitoring System (RMS) is obligatory. 
A risk assessment that concludes that there is no need to undertake residue analysis shall have identified that there is:
- A track history of 4 or more years of analytical verification without detecting incidences (e.g. exceedances, use of non-authorized PPPs, etc.); and
- No or minimal use of PPPs; and

- A risk assessment validated by an independent third party (e.g. CB inspector, expert, etc.) or the customer. 
Exceptions to these conditions could be those crops where there is no use of PPPs and the environment is very controlled, and for these reasons the industry does not normally undertake PPP residue analysis (mushrooms could be an example).
