Breaking News About Natural Health Product Enforcement in March 2011

This email was posted by Kevin P Miller HERE

Hello,
I regret to be the bearer of bad news. I have received confirmation of the new Health Canada enforcement intent for 2011. On March 1, 2011 Health Canada begins full enforcement of nhp’s.

Here are the details:

On March 1, 2011 retailers will not be permitted to purchase unlicensed stock from suppliers (EN or NPN is required), regardless of a submission being in queue.·

On March 1, 2011 importers will not be allowed to import unlicensed products (EN or NPN required).·

On September 1, 2011 retailers will not be allowed to sell to consumers any product that does not have an EN or NPN. In other words, retailers will be allowed to continue selling out unlicensed stock from now until September 1, 2011 — but after September 1, 2011 they will not be permitted to sell unlicensed stock.

This is a drastic sea change in policy, and I need to emphasize with all of you that this is no small matter. I strongly encourage for those of you who are CHFA members to send your feedback to Helen Sherrard (hsherrard@chfa.ca) and let them know how you feel. They need feedback. So that you are aware, a strong cross-stakeholder advocacy initiative is already under way — and I will be sending out invites to participate over the next month. We cannot afford to lose our innovative products, especially when Health Canada is not committed to changing their evidence standards.

The NHPD has also told us they are committing to changing some of their evidence standard guidelines. But I need to emphasize here — and I have learned this just today — that none of those evidence standard changes are with regards to how much / what type of evidence is required for what type of claim (i.e., this is our biggest challenge as always). While there are some minor changes that will be beneficial, for the most part these evidence standards have turned out to be minor and have been watered down by Health Canada. If you are a client of ours (excuse this blanket email), you need to ensure that you have all of your submissions in ASAP. You cannot bank on an advocacy change — if you intend to sell any products after March 1, 2011 then you need to have your submissions in now.

We are booking for January, please let Adrian Rodriguez (adrian@nhpconsulting.ca) know as soon as possible what your needs are.

    I know this if off topic but I'm looking into starting my own weblog and was curious what all is required to get setup? I'm assuming
    having a blog like yours would cost a pretty penny?
    I'm not very internet savvy so I'm not 100% certain. Any
    suggestions or advice would be greatly appreciated.
    Thank you

    Amazing blog! Do you have any suggestions for aspiring writers?
    I'm planning to start my own blog soon but I'm a little lost on
    everything. Would you recommend starting with a free platform like Wordpress or go for a paid option?
    There are so many options out there that I'm totally confused .. Any recommendations? Thanks!
