The government is now operating in accordance with the Guidance on Caretaker Conventions, pending the outcome of the 2025 federal election.
Purpose
The purpose of this guidance is to help manufacturers and sponsors understand how the TGA interprets regulations, and thus indicate how to comply.
This is a guide only, and manufacturers and sponsors are encouraged to familiarise themselves with the legislative and regulatory requirements in Australia.
If necessary, seek professional advice as it is the responsibility of each manufacturer or sponsor to understand and comply with these requirements.
This document will evolve over time and updates and clarifications will be included as required. Feedback on the guidance is always welcome.
