Climate change issues are one of many issues that organizations are to consider when analysing their internal and external context and determining requirements from customers and other relevant interested parties.

As part of ISO’s commitment to action on climate change, amendments to over 30 of ISO’s Management System Standards, including ISO 9001, have now been issued to include climate change considerations and the same is published on 23 February 2024.

Key points are given below:

The amendments include the determination of whether climate change is a relevant issue for the organization and the consideration of interested parties’ requirements related to climate change.

Emphasizes the need for auditors to maintain objectivity and neutrality when auditing climate change issues, focusing on assessing how organizations address climate change within their quality management systems

Provides guidance for auditing climate change issues impacting the quality management system and its intended results, outlining specific considerations and examples for auditors to evaluate

Furthermore, the document highlights the importance of addressing issues determined as relevant by the organization within the quality management system.

Presents non-exhaustive examples of questions and related aspects for auditors to assess how organizations are addressing climate change issues, including determining the scope of the quality management system, actions to address risks and opportunities, changes, resources, operations, and performance evaluation and improvement.

CDSCO mandates online safety reporting for Medical Devices

Following pharmaceuticals, the Central Drugs Standard Control Organisation (CDSCO) has mandated that manufacturers of medical devices and in-vitro devices submit their safety reports online.

The Drugs Controller General of India, has issued the directive on 19th March 2024 for online submission of Period Safety Update Reports for Medical Devices and in-vitro devices, aimed at improving post-market surveillance data evaluation

Effective 1 April 2024, the option to submit applications offline in hard copy or any other method will no longer be available

A PSUR is a vital pharmacovigilance document that assesses the risk-benefit balance of a drug product after its authorization, providing a comprehensive analysis based on all available information, including new data.
This report determines whether additional studies are necessary or if modifications are needed

This is part of efforts to overhaul India’s drug regulation framework and enhance safety transparency.
