Inspection follow-up
Version 1.0, September 2017
Last updated
When non-compliance with Australian pharmacovigilance legislation and guidelines is identified during an inspection, follow-up will be required until a CAPA plan that appropriately addresses the non-compliance is completed. The following follow-up actions may be initiated, as appropriate:
- meeting with you to discuss the deficiencies, their impact and your action plans
- reviewing progress reports on the corrective actions
- re-inspecting to assess appropriate implementation of the CAPA plan
- asking you to provide us with data you have not yet submitted
- requesting variations to amend product information document(s)
- impact analyses, for example following a review of data that were not previously included
- asking you to issue safety communications or amend marketing and/or advertising information
- communicating the inspection findings to other regulatory authorities, where applicable under international agreements
- taking other product-related actions depending on the impact of the deficiencies and the outcome of follow-up
