ASEAN Moves Sectoral MRA on Good Manufacturing Practices Forward
JAKARTA, 18 March 2015 – Healthcare, which includes the pharmaceutical sector, is one of 12 priority sectors for ASEAN economic integration. In line with this, an ASEAN Mutual Recognition Arrangement (MRA) on Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) Inspection for Manufacturers of Medicinal Products had been identified as a priority initiative. Thus, an ASEAN MRA Taskforce on GMP Inspection was formed in 2005 to work towards the signing of a pan-ASEAN MRA on GMP Inspection, in tandem with the creation of the ASEAN Economic Community (AEC) 2015.
