Regulatory Workshop Series: Discussion Forum on Proposed Framework for Statutory Regulatory of Medical Devices (14 September 2010)

Hong Kong Medical and Healthcare Device Industries Association (HKMHDIA) is now organising a half-day seminar " Regulatory Workshop Series: Discussion Forum on Proposed Framework for Statutory Regulatory of Medical Devices" that is going to be held on the 14th of September 2010 (Tuesday) at Hong Kong Productivity Council.
The Department of Health (DoH) of the HKSAR Government established the Medical Device Control Office (MDCO) in 2004 with the goal of ensuring medical devices are safe, efficacious, and perform as intended. In furthering such goals, MDCO has adopted a risk-based regulatory approach under the current operating Medical Device Administrative Control System (MDACS). MDACS is a voluntary system under which Importers, Local Manufacturers, Local Responsible Person and medical devices are registered and listed. After 6 years of ongoing consultations, the DoH is planning to submit to the Legislative Council a statutory framework for the medical devices regulation.

In this workshop, we have invited representatives from MDCO to introduce the “Proposed Framework for Statutory Regulatory of Medical Devices” (Proposal) which was published on 29th August, 2010. We are also going to meet with the key staff of MDCO and have better understanding about their daily operations. The purpose of this workshop is to providing networking opportunities and to discuss among our industries and collect comments on the Proposal.
