CBRN CoE Project 08
CBRN CoE Project 12
CBRN CoE Project 12 – France Expertise Internationale (FEI)
Objective:Sharing of experience with the EU and development of
recommendations for countries at need on the reinforcement of
national legislation and regulations in the area of laboratory
biosafety & biosecurity, under the scope of the International
Health Regulations (IHR)
Geographical Scope:Brunei Darussalam, Cambodia, Lao PDR, Malaysia, Vietnam
Duration: 2 years, April 2013 ‐
March 2015CONTACTS:Mr. Vincent Trouvevincent.trouve@dipl
omatie.gouv.fr
CBRN CoE Project 12
Justification: The IHR are legally‐binding for all countries, their implementation implies compliance
with internationally recognized regulations and procedures, particularly in the
laboratory area
Among
the 20 indicators
selected
for reporting
to the annual
World Health
Assembly, 3
are related
to EU CBRN CoE
project
12:1. Legislation, laws, regulations, administrative requirements,
policies or
other government instruments in place are sufficient
for implementation of IHR.12. Laboratory services are available to test for priority health
threats.13. Laboratory biosafety and laboratory biosecurity (Biorisk
management) practices are in place.
Project in 3 phases:1.
Inventory of the national legislation and standards April 2013
–
March 20142.
Analysis of national legislations and standards and comparison with EU, with
regards to IHR requirements April 2014 – October 2014
