On Wednesday 22 January, the European Commission launched two public consultations regarding the proposal of two implementing acts related to veterinary medicines, specifically:
- The rules on good manufacturing practices;
- The rules on good manufacturing practices for active substances used as raw materials.
These two initiatives aim to define clear rules and ensure that good manufacturing practices are applied in a harmonized way across the European Union.
The consultations are open for comments and declarations from stakeholders for a period of 4 weeks, until 19 February 2025. The adoption of the implementing acts by the European Commission is scheduled for the first quarter of 2025.
