China’s National Medical Products Administration (NMPA) has updated their website, which has resulted in a number of broken links in the China country profile. The ClinRegs team is working to identify and replace these links.

In addition, the NMPA has recently released the following requirements, which the ClinRegs team is reviewing and will incorporate into the China profile this year.
