PDUFA II Five-Year Plan
FY 1999 Revision
(July 1999)


The revised plan begins with a statement of purpose, provides background information on PDUFA and a summary of the PDUFA II goals, and discusses the 10 major assumptions on which the plan is based and how those assumptions have changed since the original plan was issued in 1998. Included is the assumption that this plan is dynamic and will be reassessed each fiscal year through 2002. This is the first revision of the plan since it was initially published in 1998.

The individual plans of Agency components with major PDUFA responsibilities are summarized, followed by a summary of associated expenditures and an Agency summary.
