­

­  
renewal, but also
­  
variations updating Quality (Module 3) to current status of scientific knowledge
 
(as for instance change in shelf life of finished product, DMF or CEP updates etc,) as well as for
­  
variations imposed by Health Authorities as for instance an Article 30 procedure to harmonise SmPC, PIL and labelling,

shall be borne by ONCO.
