Memorandum to Registrants, Applicants and Agents , as
outlined in the North American Initiative Paper (November
1998), the Canadian Pest Management Regulatory Agency (PMRA)

method of assuring the safety and efficacy of pesticides, with
the added benefit of promoting sound regulatory policies worldwide.
Harmonization benefits everyone by encouraging availability
of new and safer products, reducing duplication of effort,
and streamlining the pesticide review process.
