Plain English Summary

1/10 complexity

This Order updates the Therapeutic Goods Act 1989 to specify that “British Pharmacopoeia” means the British Pharmacopoeia 2007 from 1 July 2007.

That change matters because the Pharmacopoeia sets legally referenced quality and testing standards for medicines; it chiefly affects pharmaceutical companies and the TGA, who must meet the 2007 edition’s requirements.
