Semiannual Guidance Agenda

AGENCY: Food and Drug Administration, HHS.

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is publishing the 
semiannual guidance document agenda. FDA committed to publishing, on a 
semiannual basis, possible guidance topics or documents for development 
or revision during the next year, and seeking public comment on 
additional ideas for new guidance documents or revisions of existing 
ones. This commitment was made in FDA's February 1997 ``Good Guidance 
Practices'' (GGP's), which set forth the agency's policies and 
procedures for the development, issuance, and use of guidance 
documents. This list is intended to seek public comment on possible 
topics for guidance documents and possible revisions to existing 
guidances.

DATES: Submit comments on this list and on agency guidance documents at 
any time.

ADDRESSES: Submit written comments to the Dockets Management Branch 
(HFA-305), Food and Drug Administration, 5630 Fishers Lane, rm. 1061, 
Rockville, MD 20852.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
     For general information regarding FDA's GGP's contact: LaJuana D. 
Caldwell, Office of Policy (HF-27), Food and Drug Administration, 5600

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

 I. Background

     In the Federal Register of February 27, 1997 (62 FR 8961), FDA 
published a notice announcing its GGP's, which set forth the agency's 
policies and procedures for the development, issuance, and use of 
guidance documents. The agency adopted the GGP's to ensure public 
involvement in the development of guidance documents and to enhance 
public understanding of the availability, nature, and legal effect of 
such guidance.
     As part of FDA's effort to ensure meaningful interaction with the 
public regarding guidance documents, the agency committed to publishing 
a semiannual guidance document agenda of possible guidance topics or 
documents for development or revision during the coming year. The 
agency also committed to soliciting public input regarding these and 
additional ideas for new topics or revisions to existing guidance 
documents.
     The agency is neither bound by this list of possible topics nor 
required to issue every guidance document on this list or precluded 
from issuing guidance documents not on the list set forth in this 
document.
     The following list of guidance topics or documents represents 
possible new topics or revisions to existing guidance documents that 
the agency is considering. The agency solicits comments on the topics 
listed in this document and also seeks additional ideas from the 
public.
     On June 1, 1998, the President instructed all Federal agencies to 
ensure the use of ``plain language'' in all new documents. As part of 
this initiative, FDA is also seeking public comment on the clarity of 
its guidance documents.
     The guidance documents are organized by the issuing Center or 
Office within FDA, and are further grouped by topic categories. The 
agency's contact persons are listed for each specific area.
