We have completed the review of AWMSG assessment processes and will be implementing the updates with a pilot to commence during quarter 3 2024. More information will be available from this website over the coming months. The updates to be piloted were endorsed by AWMSG at their June 2024 meeting, these are outlined in the AWMSG medicine assessment routes for licensed and off-label medicines document.
In the meantime we encourage companies to send any enquiries relating to submissions for medicine appraisal to us at AWTTC@wales.nhs.uk. Alternatively, companies can provide information regarding planned medicine launches by completing and submitting a Form A.
Welsh Government aims to make sure that patients in Wales have quick and fair access to medicines. The four processes to approve medicines for use in NHS Wales, a list of our recommendations and information on submitting a new medicine for use can be found below.
