Event Date: 22/01/2010 01:00
The new European Variations Regulation (EC) 1234/2008 came into operation on 01 January 2010 and introduced a number of new concepts in the variation control of human and veterinary medicines. The IMB plans to extend the scope of this regulation in Ireland so that it applies to all marketing authorisation (PA) variations from the same date in principal, although the timelines for the EU procedures will not necessarily be followed initially and will be integrated as a later step.
What will be covered?
Topics to be covered include:
· EC Procedural Guideline
· EC Classification Guideline - conditions and documents requirements
· Type 1A immediate notifications
· How centralised, MR and National procedures will work
· CMD, BPG and new procedures involving CMD
· Handling of variations within the IMB
· Fees for variations
See agenda for more details and other topics covered.

Aims of the Seminar
While all the changes are founded on ‘better regulation’ principles, some of them are quite complex. The aim of the information day is to gain a detailed understanding of how the new classifications and procedures will work so that you can get the maximum benefit from the changes for your company and how the IMB will handle the new regulation from a practical prespective.
Who Should Attend
Representatives of the human and veterinary pharmaceutical industry and regulatory professionals with responsibility for the preparation and submission of variations to marketing authorizations for human and veterinary medicines. The emphasis will be on types of submissions and their requirements rather than on the detailed scientific data and assessment criteria.
