The Methyl Bromide Technical Options Committee (MBTOC) is one of the five Technical Options Committees of the Technology and Economic Assessment Panel. MBTOC assesses the use and phase-out of methyl bromide as fumigants in agriculture and in structures and commodities: for some of those applications there are no suitable alternatives. Quarantine and pre-shipment uses of methyl bromide are exempted from control measures but the Committee monitors those uses.
