What does the HTA do with the information it receives on SAE/SARs?
The HTA retains a register of the notifications it receives from establishments. The HTA has a statutory obligation to report annually to the European Commission on the notifications it has received. Additionally, the HTA is participating in a pilot on surveillance and vigilance as part of the EUSTITE project, more information about this project can be found at www.eustite.org The 2008/09 summary of compliance report for the human application sector contains an overview of notifications received by the HTA during the 2008/09 business year. The HTA is currently developing a communications plan to determine the best ways of sharing wider learning from SAEs or SARs, to the human application sector. Once finalised, details will be available on this website.
