Abstract

This Article describes and evaluates two elements of the FDA's recent operations implicating information transparency: the Transparency Initiative and a reduction in the agency's FOIA backlog. After discussing the legal context for information disclosure at the FDA and these two transparency attempts, this Article identifies two reasons that the first has fallen short of expectations compared to the second: unlike the reduction in the FOIA backlog, the Transparency Initiative had legal constraints that it did not adequately address, along with political appointee leadership. These principles may be more generally useful for understanding how to stimulate institutional change in administrative agencies.

这是FDA两次透明度尝试的故事。
本文描述并评估了食品和药物管理局最近涉及信息透明度的两个要素:透明度倡议和减少该机构的《信息自由法》积压。在讨论了食品药品监督管理局信息披露的法律背景和这两项透明度尝试之后,本文指出了与第二项相比,第一项不如预期的两个原因:与《信息自由法》积压的减少不同,透明度倡议有法律限制,它没有充分解决,以及政治任命的领导。这些原则对于理解如何刺激行政机构的体制变革可能更普遍有用。

期刊介绍: The Food and Drug Law Journal is a peer-reviewed quarterly devoted to the analysis of legislation, regulations, court decisions, and public policies affecting industries regulated by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and related agencies and authorities, including the development, manufacture, marketing, and use of drugs, medical devices, biologics, food, dietary supplements, cosmetics, veterinary, tobacco, and cannabis-derived products. Building on more than 70 years of scholarly discourse, since 2015, the Journal is published in partnership with the Georgetown University Law Center and the O’Neill Institute for National & Global Health Law. All members can access the Journal online. Each member organization and most individual memberships (except for government, student, and Emeritus members) receive one subscription to the print Journal.
