When to include details of compliance with pre-submission meeting outcomes

- any agreements reached at the meeting.
Note:
Meetings include all relevant meetings requested by an applicant or TGA and include meetings conducted in any format (i.e. face to face, teleconference or videoconference). There may be multiple meetings before PPF or dossier lodgement.
Ensure the information provided in Module 1.7.1 is an accurate reflection of the meeting(s) and any outcomes that need to be addressed.
All meetings provide guidance only and outcomes are without prejudice and are not considered binding on the TGA.

How to prepare information about any additional data

Note:
Additional data:

Module 1.7.3 Declaration of compliance with Pre-submission planning form and Planning letter
When to include a declaration of compliance with Pre-submission planning form and Planning letter

How to prepare a declaration of compliance with Pre-submission planning form and Planning letter
After reviewing the PPF, TGA's Planning letter and the dossier to be submitted, prepare a declaration that:
- Describes how each issue identified in the TGA's Planning letter has been addressed.
- States that the application is consistent with the PPF in both scope and scale; or
- Describes all differences with appropriate justifications for their inclusion or exclusion in the dossier.

Information for applicants completing a pre-submission planning form
Important information on pre-submission and submission
The TGA will check the application for consistency with the PPF. Any differences between the information provided on the PPF and the resulting application may result in the TGA considering the application not effective. For example, the inclusion of an additional indication in the application at the submission phase increases the scope of the application and will not be accepted.
If an application will differ in scope and scale from that indicated in the PPF, contact the Application Entry Team before lodging the dossier at AET.Application.Entry.Team@health.gov.au.
