MHRA launches its own GMDP database

The British MHRA has set up a standalone MHRA-GMDP database as a new service (alpha release). This step obviously separates the UK from the EudraGMDP where the competent EU authorities publish manufacturing and wholesale approvals, GMP certificates and non-compliance reports.

This comes as quite a surprise. Switzerland, also a non-EU member has, for example, chosen to use EudraGMDP for Swiss manufacturers as well. The United Kingdom seems to pursue its own path.
