On the afternoon of December 29, the 38th plenary meeting of the Standing Committee of the Shanghai Municipal People’s Congress voted and adopted the provisions of Shanghai Pudong New Area on promoting the construction of Zhangjiang biomedical industry to a new high. There are 34 provisions in total. In view of the pain and blocking points that have affected the Industrial Development for a long time, they are from improving the management system, promoting reform breakthrough, innovating service mechanism, promoting industrial integration Strengthen resource guarantee and other five aspects to adjust, implement and fill in the gaps of existing laws and regulations. The highlights and breakthroughs are summarized in the following two aspects:
First, relevant powers are flexible. For example, biological products can be entrusted at multiple points in Shanghai, and Shanghai shall formulate relevant management measures for the self-development and use of in vitro diagnostic reagents.
The second is to solidify and improve the administrative power and legal system at the Shanghai level, such as establishing a customs clearance facilitation mechanism for the import and export of biomedical R & D articles and special articles, promoting the supply guarantee of experimental animals and the management of animal biosafety laboratories, etc. in addition, it also involves the guarantee of a number of resource elements of industrial development. The regulations create a world-class business environment for the development of biomedical industry in Pudong New Area, and provide a strong legal guarantee for starting the brand of Zhangjiang biomedical industry innovation highland and making every effort to build a world-class biomedical industry cluster.
At the press conference held on the same day, Liu Ping, deputy director of Shanghai Economic and Information Technology Commission, introduced that in order to further promote the construction of Zhangjiang biomedical industry innovation highland in Pudong New Area and solve the problem bottleneck in development, The Municipal Economic and Information Technology Commission, together with the Pudong New Area government, took the lead in customizing the provisions of Shanghai Pudong New Area on promoting the construction of Zhangjiang biomedical industry to a new high. The formulation process has the following three considerations:
First, based on the implementation of the relevant tasks of the opinions of the leading area, promote the first trial of reform measures. On the one hand, resolutely implement the contents directly related to the biomedical industry in the opinions of the leading area, such as the pilot application of self-developed in vitro diagnostic reagents and the bonded maintenance of “two ends out” high-end medical equipment; On the other hand, implement the matters related to the development and extension of the biomedical industry in the opinions of the leading area, such as establishing an international vocational qualification certificate recognition system, optimizing the access standards of industrial land and increasing the supply of mixed land.
Second, based on solidifying and learning from innovative practice, promote the legalization of practice mechanism. The institutionalization and legalization of innovative practices in Pudong New Area through legislation, such as the entry and exit of special goods and the customs clearance of biomedical R & D goods, is the solidification and improvement of the “white list” system of pilot biological special goods and R & D goods in Pudong New Area. For another example, drawing on the successful practices in Boao, Hainan, Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao Dawan District, Beijing free trade zone and other places, approve the emergency use of imported drugs and equipment, and establish human genetic resources management service institutions.
Third, based on the demands and pain points of industrial development, adapt and optimize the existing regulations. Grasp the development direction of Pudong’s high-level reform and opening up, and make modifications to existing laws and regulations according to the opinions of the leading area, such as supporting diversified investors to carry out R & D and industrialization of human cells and gene technology according to the requirements of promoting first try, proposing pilot multi-point entrustment and optimizing review and approval services according to the innovative management service mode, According to the sound factor market, put forward terms such as laboratory animal guarantee, talent incentive and guarantee, strengthening financial services, industrial land support, etc.
