The Food and Drug
Administration (FDA) is issuing
regulations that provide criteria for
acceptance by FDA, under certain
circumstances, of electronic records,
electronic signatures, and handwritten
signatures executed to electronic
records as equivalent to paper records
and handwritten signatures executed on
paper. These regulations, which apply
to all FDA program areas, are intended
to permit the widest possible use of
electronic technology, compatible with
FDA?s responsibility to promote and
protect public health. The use of
electronic records as well as their
submission to FDA is voluntary.
Elsewhere in this issue of the Federal
Register, FDA is publishing a document
providing information concerning
submissions that the agency is prepared
to accept electronically.
