CHM meeting.

The function and purpose of MHRA advisory committees
The Commission on Human Medicines (CHM)
The functions of the CHM are set out in regulation 10 of the Human Medicines Regulations 2012 (as
amended):
• to advise Ministers and the Licensing Authority on matters relating to human medicinal
products including giving advice in relation to the safety, quality and efficacy of human
medicinal products where either the Commission thinks it appropriate or where it is asked to
do so;
• to consider those applications that lead to Licensing Authority action as appropriate (i.e.,
where the Licensing Authority has a statutory duty to refer or chooses to do so);
• to consider representations made (either in writing or at a hearing) by an applicant or by a
licence or marketing authorisation holder in certain circumstances; and
• to promote the collection and investigation of information relating to adverse reactions to
human medicines for the purposes of enabling such advice to be given.
