CTFA Requests Public Comments on Quality Assurance and GMP Guidelines

The Cosmetic, Toiletry, and Fragrance Association (CTFA) is requesting public comments by February 2, 2007 on the new and revised CTFA Quality Assurance and Good Manufacturing Practice Guidelines. The CTFA Quality Assurance Guidelines, which consists of a core chapter on the principles of cosmetic GMPs and 24 supporting annexes, are designed to provide assistance to cosmetic manufacturers, suppliers, and contractors in developing GMP programs. They are part of the CTFA Technical Guidelines series. Each Guideline undergoes an extensive development and review process by CTFA technical committees and staff, as well as public review by CTFA member companies, nonmember companies, federal government agencies, and scientific professional societies. An electronic copy of the draft guidelines is available from the CTFA Public Affairs Department by contacting Jill Marvin, (202) 454-0316 or email at [email protected].
