ACVM Manufacturing Workshop - Auckland

The Agricultural Compounds and Veterinary Medicines (ACVM) Group of the Ministry for Primary Industries is holding two ACVM Manufacturing Workshops over the coming months.

These workshops (one in Wellington, the day after the 70th Annual Agcarm conference, and one in Auckland) are intended for New Zealand manufacturers and registrants who manufacture and/or register products under the ACVM Act. Each workshop will be similar in content and scope, so it is not necessary to attend both of the workshops.

Although several of the topics will be related to Good Manufacturing Practice philosophies (and therefore primarily relevant to veterinary medicine and vertebrate toxic agent (VTA) manufacturers and their associated registrants), the principles that are to be discussed are applicable to all manufacturers of ACVM related products who are interested in understanding the regulatory perspective for common compliance issues and producing a consistent product of the appropriate quality to meet your needs and those of your customers.

At this stage, some proposed topics to be covered are:

• Quality Management
• Compliance & Deficiencies
• Adverse Event Reporting
• APIs/Raw Material Quality & CoAs
• Validation
• Contract Manufacturing
• VM Chemistry & Manufacturing Information Requirements & PDS
• GMP Programme Review

The final agenda is still to be confirmed but the proposed agenda can be viewed at the following link:
