We received a wide range of valuable feedback that will enable the MHRA to shape future regulation. We have published proposals that will deliver the earliest access to safe, effective and innovative medical products and to strengthen our powers to act to keep patients and the public safe.

This is an ambitious, transformational programme of reform and the MHRA will ensure that legislative changes to the system meet the needs of industry and the healthcare sector.

There will be continued work and engagement with industry and stakeholders whilst refining legislation and implementing changes. The MHRA will gradually phase in the new requirements with transitional arrangements, to give industry enough time to adapt to the change.

Please see more information in our Press Release and the Government response here.  

We would be grateful if you could share this message with your contacts and wider networks.

Thank you for your support.

The Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency
