A proposed draft of new legislation for medical devices was released by India's Health Ministry, according to the website, India Briefing.
The Drugs and Cosmetics (Amendment) Bill is expected to be submitted to country's parliament later this year, and would make their regulations the same as the European Medical Device Directives.
According to the article, "the new legislation would simplify import procedures and affect change across many areas including: manufacturing, sales, distribution and clinical trial of medical devices."
It will also establish a Medical Devices Technical Advisory Board.
