Proposed refinements to the Regulation of medical devices that are substances introduced into the human body via a body orifice or applied to the skin

A total of 45 submissions were recieved, which comprised of:

• 17 from the medical device or medicine industry (manufacturers, sponsors or peak body associations);
• 28 from consumers, many of whom appeared to have misunderstood the intent of the consultation and the Australian regulatory framework as it currently exists. Thus, these submissions will not be published.

All submissions from respondents, excluding those from consumers, that gave permission for publication are available below. Five respondents did not give permission for their submission to be published.
