The competent authority enters the notified change in the register of manufacturers of active substances:

• or entering the change under the previous paragraph in the register of manufacturers of active substances in 30 days from the date of the receipt of the complete application if the committee assesses that the verification of the fulfilment of conditions is not necessary and issues an appropriate certificate.

If the change under the first paragraph of this article does not refer to data from the register of manufacturers of active substances, the competent authority issues a decision on the assessment of the fulfilment of conditions for manufacturing active substances in 30 days or in 90 days from the date when a complete application is received, if the committee assesses that the verification of the fulfilment of conditions is required.
