COVID vax plants can be established in 10 months
The Anti-Red Tape Authority (ARTA) said the government’s initiative to put up a green lane for COVID-19 vaccine manufacturers will help pharmaceutical firms establish a production facility in 10 months.
ARTA, together with the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI), Department of Health (DOH), Food and Drug Administration (FDA), Department of Science and Technology (DOST), and National Task Force Against Covid-19, is set to release a joint memorandum circular (JMC) for the establishment of a green lane for vaccine manufacturers.
In a meeting last month, DTI Secretary Ramon Lopez said the agency has at least four COVID-19 vaccine manufacturing leads. Lopez said these companies were requesting the government to facilitate their potential investments by accelerating the processing of permits
“With this (JMC), ARTA estimates vaccine manufacturing plants to be put up in 10 months once all conditions are met,” ARTA said.
