In response to several recommendations in the April 2010 Office of Inspector General’s (OIG) report entitled <a href=" http://oig.hhs.gov/oei/reports/oei-02-08-00080.pdf ">"FDA Inspections of Domestic Food Facilities"</a>, the Office of Regulatory Affairs (ORA) committed to implementing changes for taking appropriate and timely actions in ensuring compliance and corrections to violations at establishments that have an Official Action Indicated (OAI) inspection classification at the most recent inspection, a Class I recall, and/or those under a consent decree of permanent injunction. An assessment was conducted to compare and summarize the number of these types of inspections and the status of follow-up inspections. In August 2011, the Office of Enforcement (OE) in ORA began providing FDA District Offices with monthly status reports listing outstanding domestic inspections (since October 1, 2010) for OAI classifications at the most recent inspection, Class I recall, and consent decrees of permanent injunction. During the first four months of providing these reports, 3 of 19 District Offices showed an improvement in timely follow-up to OAI inspections as evidenced by a decreasing trend in the number of OAI inspections with outstanding follow-up greater than 6 months. FDA will continue to monitor and work to improve the timeliness of these follow-up inspections.The Agency discloses inspection information to help improve the public’s understanding of how the FDA works to protect the public health. Disclosure of the compliance status of firms helps to provide the public and industry with a rationale for the Agency’s enforcement actions, informs market place decision-making, and encourages compliance.
