Deborah Martinez Seldon: Debarment Order
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is issuing an order under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the FD&C Act) permanently debarring Deborah Martinez Seldon from providing services in any capacity to a person that has an approved or pending drug product application. FDA bases this order on a finding that Ms. Seldon was convicted of multiple felonies under Federal law for conduct relating to the regulation of a drug product under the FD&C Act. Ms. Seldon was given notice of the proposed permanent debarment and an opportunity to request a hearing within the timeframe prescribed by regulation. Ms. Seldon failed to respond. Ms. Seldon's failure to respond constitutes a waiver of her right to a hearing concerning this action.
Preemption Review
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is announcing that it has determined, after conducting a review of its existing regulations issued within the past 10 years that contain statements in regulatory preambles or codified provisions intended by the Agency to preempt State law, that three FDA regulatory preambles contain or refer to statements about preemption that are not legally justified. FDA conducted this review in response to the President's May 20, 2009, ``Memorandum for the Heads of Executive Departments and Agencies,'' which outlined the Administration's policy on preemption, in keeping with the principles in Executive Order 13132 on Federalism. The President's memorandum included a directive that such a review be conducted. FDA is also taking this opportunity to clarify certain preamble statements related to preemption resulting from express preemption provisions in the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FD&C Act) concerning nonprescription drugs and food labeling.
