EBA: GMP COMPLIANCE RELAXATION REQUIRED TO IMPROVE IMPORTED MEDICINES REGISTRATION

1 June , 2016  

KYIV. June 1 (Interfax-Ukraine) – The GMP compliance procedure needs to be relaxed along with facilitating the imported medicines registration procedure, the European Business Association (EBA) has said.

“Welcoming steps on the way to improving regulations we also ask registration to be accelerated in respect to providing proof of GMP compliance,” the EBA said in a press release.

The association experts said that this document is mandatory for the registration of medicines and it takes a lot of time to get it.

“We hope that this obvious barrier to simplifying registration would be also taken into consideration during the final approval of the bill,” the EBA said.

In general, the EBA positively assesses the final bill on facilitating medicines registration.

The association said that according to the document, only those medicines permitted in all 28 EU states can be imported to the Ukrainian market.
