Checklist for information prior to review and analysis 1. Pre-formulation and stability studies, materials characterization 2. Formulation, unit dose 3. List of suppliers and alternate suppliers used in manufacturing with complete CAs, route of synthesis, impurities, solvents, intermediates, starting materials 4. Manufacturing process 5. All equipment used, its design and operational specifications, calibration and maintenance history 6. Construction or review of PFD (process flow diagram) and P&ID if necessary (piping and instrumentation diagram), check if updated or an option for a walk-thru

Table1: The 12-step HACCP programme Features Descriptions 1) 2) 3) 4) 5) 6) Preliminary Tasks Define scope of system and risk question Assemble HACCP team consisting of R&D, manufacturing, QA and define scope Describe/ review product and process, equipment properties, characteristics etc. (in short, all information about productprocess-equipment-utility, PPEU) Identify intended use Challenge/ Review/ Refine PFD (process flow diagram) as well as P&ID Verify PFD and P&ID onsite but it must be updated frequently Risk Assessment, Monitoring, Control and Communication 1) Conduct Hazard Analysis 2) Determine CCPs 3) Establish critical limits for each CCP 4) Establish monitoring and control system for each CCP 5) Establish corrective actions for each CCP 6) Establish verification procedures to confirm if HACCP is working 7) Establish documentation and record keeping
