Semiannual Guidance Agenda

AGENCY: Food and Drug Administration, HHS.

ACTION: Notice.

SUMMARY: The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is publishing the first semiannual guidance document agenda. FDA committed to publishing, on a semiannual basis, possible guidance topics or documents for development or revision during the next year, and seeking public comment on additional ideas for new or revisions of existing guidance documents. This commitment was made in FDA's February 1997 ``Good Guidance Practices'' (GGP's), which set forth the agency's policies and procedures for the development, issuance, and use of guidance documents. This list is intended to seek public comment on possible topics for guidance documents and possible revisions to existing guidances.

DATES: Comments on this list and on agency guidance documents are welcome at any time.

ADDRESSES: Submit written comments to the Dockets Management Branch (HFA-305), Food and Drug Administration, 5630 Fishers Lane, rm. 1061, Rockville, MD 20852.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

  1. Background

    In the Federal Register of February 27, 1997 (62 FR 8961), FDA published a notice announcing its GGP's, which set forth the agency's policies and procedures for the development, issuance, and use of guidance documents. The agency adopted the GGP's to ensure public involvement in the development of guidance documents and to enhance public understanding of the availability, nature, and legal effect of such guidance.

    As part of FDA's effort to ensure meaningful interaction with the public regarding guidance documents, the agency committed to publishing a semiannual guidance document agenda of possible guidance topics or documents for development or revision during the next year. The agency also committed to soliciting public input regarding these and additional ideas for new topics or revisions to existing guidance documents.

    The agency is neither bound by this list of possible topics nor required to issue every guidance document on this list or precluded from issuing guidance documents not on the list set forth in this document.

    The following list of guidance topics or documents represents possible new topics or revisions to existing guidance documents that the agency is considering. The agency solicits comments on the topics listed in this document and also seeks additional ideas from the public. On June 1, 1998, the President instructed all Federal agencies to ensure the use of ``plain language'' in all new documents. As part of this initiative, FDA is also seeking public comment on the clarity of its guidance documents.

    The guidance documents are organized by the issuing Center or Office within FDA, and are further grouped by topic categories. The agency's contact persons are listed for each specific area.
