Section B: Safety
A Risk Management Plan (RMP) is a set of pharmacovigilance and risk minimisation activities designed to identify, characterise and manage the important safety concerns relating to a vaccine. The committee was asked to provide general advice about safety concerns that would be considered important for inclusion in the RMP. The committee advised that a safety specification should have a focus on the adverse events that in clinical practice would be unexpected/novel.
Section C: Immunisation Programs
No matter related to the immunisation programs was discussed.
