TGA urged to revise KPIs
July 4, 2013
THE Therapeutic Goods
Administration should expand
the scope of its Key Performance
Indicators, “in order to determine
whether the business processes
reforms are delivering outcomes for
therapeutic product suppliers”.
A submission to the TGA by
the Australian Dental Industry
Association (ADIA) welcomes the
TGA’s commitment to increased
accountability and transparency.
However “greater emphasis
needs to be on benchmarking
outcomes of interest to industry,”
the ADIA said, adding that
current KPIs identified by the
TGA largely measure the agency’s
administrative performance.
“TGA needs to generate further
measures that benchmark the
knowledge of, and compliance
with, the regulatory standards for
therapeutic products among its
stakeholders,” the submission said.
“From ADIA’s perspective, the
TGA’s objective in preparing quality
performance information is to
inform stakeholders and decision
makers of the extent to which
TGA resources are being used
efficiently and effectively, in order
to competently administer the
legislation for which the TGA is
responsible,” said ADIA ceo Troy
Williams.
Williams said that data which
provides guidance on familiarity
of the regulatory standards for
the approval of therapeutic
products amongst those that must
comply with them “would allow
government to assess the reasons
for the ever-increasing illegal
imports” - see adia.org.au.
