Food and Cosmetics Compliance Programs
|
Compliance programs are documents prepared by FDA's Centers that
provide guidance to the Agency's field offices in carrying out
investigations, inspections, sample collections, sample analyses, and
regulatory activities in defined program areas, such as domestic seafood
and pesticides in domestic foods for example.
CFSAN's compliance programs are usually issued for 3-year periods and are
continuing programs, that is they are renewed, updated, and re-issued
after each 3-year period. Some programs, however, are re-issued more
frequently due to changes in priorities, procedures, regulatory concerns,
etc.
Compliance programs differ from field assignments in that field
assignments are typically more focused, short-term activities.
CFSAN presently has about 25 compliance programs and all will soon be
available on the website. The programs appearing on this internet site
are publicly releasable versions of the complete Compliance Program documents.
They have been reviewed by CFSAN's Freedom of
Information Office and information not releasable under current FOI
regulations has been removed. FDA Field Staff should use the complete version available
on the FDA Intranet.
