SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: DATES: I. Background On January 21, 2009, President Obama issued a memorandum urging the heads of executive departments and Agencies to create an ‘‘unprecedented level of openness’’ to ‘‘strengthen our democracy and promote efficiency and effectiveness’’ (see Memorandum to Heads of Executive Departments and Agencies on Transparency and Open Government, January 21, 2009, (74 FR 4685, January 26, 2009)). In response, the following June FDA launched its Transparency Initiative. Information on the FDA Transparency Initiative is available at https://www.fda.gov/ AboutFDA/Transparency/Transparency Initiative/default.htm. As part of this initiative, FDA issued the Phase III Report (FDA Transparency Initiative: Improving Transparency to Regulated Industry, dated January 2011) in January 2011. The Phase III Report contained 19 action items and 5 draft proposals to make FDA’s operations and decisionmaking processes more transparent and to foster more efficient and cost-effective regulatory processes. In Action Item 11 of the Phase III Report, the Commissioner called for a cross-Agency working group to prepare a report identifying FDA’s ‘‘best practices’’ and making recommendations to: (1) Streamline the development of guidance documents, (2) reduce the time between issuing draft and final guidance documents, and (3) make it easier to find guidance documents on FDA’s Web site. In response to that action item, a cross-Agency working group under the leadership of the Office of Policy in the Office of the Commissioner prepared a report entitled ‘‘Food and Drug Administration Report on Good Guidance Practices: Improving Efficiency and Transparency’’ (GGP E:\FR\FM\30DEN1.SGM 30DEN1
