Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 98 / Friday, May 21, 2010 / Notices emcdonald on DSK2BSOYB1PROD with NOTICES public about that topic. FDA uses the feedback provided by the public to update this resource. Phase II is the subject of this document and is described in more detail in section II of this document. Phase III of the Transparency Initiative will address ways FDA can become more transparent to regulated industry, to foster a more efficient and cost-effective regulatory process. The Task Force solicited comments from the public on this topic in March 2010 (75 FR 11893, March 12, 2010) and draft proposals from this phase are expected in the summer of 2010. II. Phase II: Public Disclosure The second phase of the Transparency Initiative relates to FDA’s policies on disclosure of information to the public about FDA activities. FDA is releasing a report that contains 21 draft proposals that we are issuing for public comment. The draft proposals, along with background material, can be found on the FDA Web site at www.fda.gov/ transparency. FDA is accepting comments from the public on the draft proposals on the FDA Web site as well as through the docket (see section III of this notice). The Task Force solicited comments from the public about information FDA should provide to the public about what FDA is doing, the bases for the agency’s decisions, and the processes used to make agency decisions. The Task Force reviewed and considered all the comments received from a range of stakeholders. The Task Force also identified on its own initiative ways to improve transparency that are reflected in the report. In the report, the Task Force makes available for public comment 21 draft proposals for changes in policy related to the disclosure of information FDA has in its possession, while supporting the redaction of trade secrets and individually identifiable patient information from all documents proposed for disclosure. Other topics on which FDA plans to make changes or on which the Task Force is not proposing policy changes at this time are discussed in the ‘‘Other Areas of Public Comment’’ section of the report. After considering public comment on the draft proposals, the Task Force will recommend specific proposals to the Commissioner for consideration, and then FDA will announce which of the proposals it will implement, and the projected timeframe for implementation. Some of the draft proposals may require extensive resources to implement, and some may require changes to regulations or legislation. Therefore, in addition to VerDate Mar<15>2010 16:40 May 20, 2010 Jkt 220001 28623 input on the content of the proposals and whether the Task Force has struck the right balance with respect to the draft proposals, FDA is seeking input on how the agency should prioritize the proposals, if it decided to implement them. The Task Force will consider feasibility and priority, considering other agency priorities that require resources, when developing its specific recommendations for the Commissioner.
