Manufacturing therapeutic goods

In Australia, the Therapeutic Goods Act 1989 requires, with certain exceptions, that manufacturers of therapeutic goods hold a licence or a conformity assessment certificate. It is an offence, carrying heavy penalties, to manufacture therapeutic goods for human use without a licence or a conformity assessment certificate unless the manufacturer or goods are exempt from this requirement.
