21 CFR Part 10

[Docket No. FDA-2018-N-1097]


Good Guidance Practices; Technical Amendment

AGENCY: Food and Drug Administration, HHS.

ACTION: Final rule; technical amendment.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Food and Drug Administration (FDA or Agency) is amending 
its good guidance practices regulation to inform the public on how to 
electronically submit a draft of a proposed guidance to the Agency. 
This technical amendment is nonsubstantive.

DATES: This rule is effective March 29, 2018.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Megan Velez, Office of Policy, Food 
and Drug Administration, 10903 New Hampshire Ave., Bldg. 32, Rm. 4254, 
Silver Spring, MD 20993-0002, 301-796-9301.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: FDA is amending 21 CFR 10.115(f)(3), good 
guidance regulations, by adding language on how the public can 
electronically submit drafts of proposed guidance documents to 
participate in the development and issuance of guidance documents. The 
amendment provides an option for submitting the draft of a proposed 
guidance to the Agency electronically through https://www.regulations.gov at Docket No. FDA-2013-S-0610.
    Publication of this document constitutes final action on the change 
under the Administrative Procedure Act (5 U.S.C. 553). This technical 
amendment is nonsubstantive. FDA therefore, for good cause, has 
determined that notice and public comment are unnecessary under 5 
U.S.C. 553(b)(3)(B). Further, this rule places no burden on affected 
parties for which such parties would need a reasonable time to prepare 
for the effective date of the rule. Accordingly, FDA, for good cause, 
has determined

[[Page 13416]]

this technical amendment to be exempt under 5 U.S.C. 553(d)(3) and that 
the rule can become effective upon publication.
