Gastrointestinal Drugs Advisory Committee; Notice of Meeting, 50701 [2012-20612]

Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 163 / Wednesday, August 22, 2012 / Notices of an explanatory statement. The total hour burden of this task is shown in row 2 of table 1. The total reporting hour burden is 2,224 hours, which equals the burden for the required domestic address or telephone (1,112 hours) plus the burden for the explanatory statement before the domestic address or telephone number (1,112 hours). This estimate is 3,336 hours lower than the 5,560 hours reported in the 60-day notice published June 14, 2012, due to an Agency reassessment that 0.2 hours per disclosure more accurately reflects the burden. This reassessment is based on the Agency’s expectation that firms, estimated to design four new labels per year, are familiar with the requirement to include the domestic address or telephone number in their product labels. It is also based on FDA’s recommendations on the use of an explanatory statement and our expectation that the disclosed information (domestic address or telephone number and explanatory statement) would not change from product label to product label. Thus, FDA estimates that firms would not need a full hour per label, but rather, approximately 24 minutes per label to include this information. Dated: August 16, 2012. Leslie Kux, Assistant Commissioner for Policy.
