The withdrawal of the visa provided for in the third paragraph of Article L. 5122-8 is decided by the Director General of the Agence nationale de sécurité du médicament et des produits de santé after the beneficiary of the visa has been invited, by any means which provides proof of the date of receipt of this notice, to present its written or oral observations within a period set by the Director General, which may not be less than one month.
In urgent cases, the Director General of the Agency may suspend the visa for a maximum of three months.
