ACCESSING information through the Therapeutic Goods Administration's website is set to become easier, following a redesign of the platform.
The regulator launched its re-organised and consolidated site yesterday, transitioning content from the old site to the National Library of Australia web archive, TROVE.
The new-look site features news, clearly accessible information about medicines shortages, clinical trials and the Database of Adverse Event Notifications (DAEN), links to open consultations and frequently searched topics.
"We have designed and built our website to align with the Digital Transformation Agency'sService Design and Delivery Process, and Digital Service Standard," the regulator said.
"We have moved from a website that was structured around how TGA works, to one that's structured to make sense to you.
"Information is now organised into the following topics:
Products we regulate - categorises the product types and what we do and don't do.
Product safety - includes safety alerts, recalls and how to report problems.
How we regulate - resources for Industry to understand what they need to do and how.
Guidance and resources - our databases, guidance, fact sheets and publications are here.
"Organising our content in this way will help you to find it more easily.
"It also helps us remove duplicated information and display content consistently, so you know what to expect.
"When we re-write more of the website content, we will be applying a consistent government style based on the Australian Government'sStyle Manual."
