Demystifying TGA

July 21, 2011

THE reforms recommended by the TGA Transparency Review panel (PD yesterday) will help demystify the regulatory process for the community, according to Medicines Australia (MA). Welcoming the final report by the Therapeutic Goods Administration Transparency Review panel, MA chief executive Dr Brendan Shaw said: “the TGA has made significant progress in reforming its business processes and we are already seeing greater transparency in the prescription medicines sector”. “The quality of information provided by the TGA to companies bringing new medicines to market is now better,” he added. Improvements already in place include upgrades to the TGA website, in particular to the search functions of the product register. Shaw said that although all the recommendations may take some time to put into place, the review represents a “significant step forward”.
