Generic Drug User Fees; Public Meeting; Request for Comments
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is announcing a public meeting on the Generic Drug User Fee Amendments of 2012 (GDUFA). The legislative authority for GDUFA expires at the end of September 2017. At that time, new legislation will be required for FDA to continue to collect generic drug user fees for future fiscal years. The Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the FD&C Act) requires that before FDA begins negotiations with the regulated industry on GDUFA reauthorization; we publish a notice in the Federal Register requesting public input on the reauthorization, hold a public meeting at which the public may present its views on the reauthorization, including specific suggestions for changes to the goals referred to in the Generic Drug User Fee Act Program Performance Goals and Procedures (i.e., the Commitment Letter), provide a period of 30 days after the public meeting to obtain written comments from the public, and publish the comments on FDA's Web site. FDA invites public comment on the GDUFA program and suggestions regarding the features FDA should propose for the next GDUFA program.
