A subteam of the TIGes group is working on revisions to the Module 1 specifications and a number of related documents. This effort is driven by the expected accession of Croatia to the European Union in July 2013. Thus the DTD must provide for this country to be included in a centralised procedure submission in eCTD format. The team working on the revisions are taking the opportunity to address a number of other pending change requests that effect the Module 1 specification and/or DTD and related documents. For your information, the pending change requests to be addressed are listed in a streamlined tracking table found here. Please note that any change requests received by 31 December 2012 will be considered for inclusion in the revisions the team has undertaken. The form to submit change requests can be found here. Change Requests should be submitted to esub.changerequests@ema.europa.eu
