Data Protection - Application Summaries

For certain applications, the APVMA is required to publish a summary of the application. This will occur shortly after the applicant has been notified that the application has been accepted for assessment, ie after it has passed screening.

The types of applications requiring an application summary include those for new active constituents, products and labels and applications involving variation to products and labels, where the variation involves a change in the use, supply or disposal of the product.

The APVMA will publish the summary on the APVMA website (see http://www.apvma.gov.au/data_protection/appl_summaries.shtml) and a list of products which have application summaries in the APVMA Gazette (see below).

The summary will include details of the application as specified in the Regulations governing Application Summaries. The Regulations require different application summaries depending on the type of application and will include different combinations of the following details:

· applicant name
· application number;
· active constituent name and number;
· product name and number;
· application purpose and description of active constituent or product use;
· a list of what data was provided with the application and considered required by the APVMA (as discussed in data protection requirements above); and
· the relevant reference active constituent and or product names and numbers.

The APVMA publishes application summaries in weekly instalments using the date the application was accepted for assessment. If an application summary has been amended then the APVMA will publish the amended version separately. As a requirement of the Regulations, some product names will appear 'NOT AVAILABLE'.
