Australia’s therapeutic goods regulator, the Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA), is implementing new arrangements to simplify and improve the handling of complaints about the advertising of medicines and medical devices to the public.

These new arrangements will see the TGA take on the role of the single body responsible for handling advertising complaints from 1 July 2018. This reform will be externally reviewed after three years to confirm that it is delivering the intended benefits and meeting community expectations.
