Answer:
The EDQM can decide to inspect a company, be it the CEP holder or the
manufacturing site(s), at any time before or after granting the CEP or after.
Willingness Applicants agree to be inspected and compliance to comply with EU - GMP (ICH Q7 or other when justified) is as part of the commitments included in the CEP application.
An applicant/CEP holder can request to be inspected by the EDQM by providing proper justification. The request will be considered according to the priority criteria defined in the EDQM’s inspection programme which gives company’s requests , requests from companies having the lowest priority.
Before requesting an inspection, companies are asked to ensure that the site is fully compliant to EU GMP for all the steps of the process described in the dossier. Should the outcome of the inspection be negative, or if the company refuses the inspection without appropriate justification after having received the notification letter, CEP(s) related to the CEP holder and/or manufacturing site(s) will be suspended.
