Changes after a marketing authorisation has been issuedU.K.

Compulsory variationU.K.

37.—(1) If the Secretary of State decides, for any of the reasons for suspending a marketing authorisation specified in paragraph 38, or because the classification of a veterinary medicinal product should be changed, that a variation to a marketing authorisation is necessary, the Secretary of State must by a notification in writing to the holder of the marketing authorisation require that person to apply for a variation of the marketing authorisation, giving reasons for requiring the application to be made.

(2) The notification may specify a time limit within which the marketing authorisation holder must apply for the variation.

(3) If the variation is on the grounds of safety, quality or efficacy, the applicant may, within 28 days of the notification, appeal to the Veterinary Products Committee.

Asesiadau Effaith

Impact Assessments generally accompany all UK Government interventions of a regulatory nature that affect the private sector, civil society organisations and public services. They apply regardless of whether the regulation originates from a domestic or international source and can accompany primary (Acts etc) and secondary legislation (SIs). An Impact Assessment allows those with an interest in the policy area to understand:

  • Why the government is proposing to intervene;
  • The main options the government is considering, and which one is preferred;
  • How and to what extent new policies may impact on them; and,
  • The estimated costs and benefits of proposed measures.
