The authorisation provided for in Article R. 5132-88 is issued by the Director General of the Agence nationale de sécurité du médicament et des produits de santé, after obtaining the opinion of the Director General of the Agence nationale de sécurité sanitaire de l’alimentation, de l’environnement et du travail, for the pharmaceutical establishments within its remit.
Modification of any of the elements mentioned in the application renders the authorisation previously granted null and void. The holder informs the Director General of the Agency and returns the document certifying authorisation.
The Director General of the Agency will notify the applicant of his decision within two months of the date on which the application is deemed to be complete. At the end of this period, if the Director General has not taken a decision, this will be deemed to be a rejection decision.
