An article posted on clindev.eu shares that the European Medicines Agency (EMA) has announced a three month public consultation of a draft transparency policy regarding clinical trial information. EMA is hoping to launch the policy in early 2014. Potential threats to the timeline would be resolved court cases challenging the 2010 open access to documents policy and ongoing legislation to replace the European Directive.

The EMA urges the public to upload comments to the draft policy using the submission form and they must be sent by September 30, 2013 to ctdatapolicy@ema.europa.eu.
