FDA Running At Reduced Capacity - Government Shutdown


Government Shutdown Leaves FDA Operating at Reduced Capacity, But User Fees Act as Agency Savior:

" . . . Steven Immergut, another FDA spokesman, who elaborated on the practical effects of the shutdown.

The facts and figures are stark: 45% of the agency's staff is not permitted to work until funding is provided. Nearly 75% of FDA staff remaining on the job are funded through industry-paid user fees, otherwise they would likely be furloughed as well. It was not immediately clear if they would receive pay at the usual intervals."
