Frequency proportionate to:
- identified risk
- potential risks
- need for additional information
Baseline periodicity: once monthly 2 week frequency:
- products under additional monitoring
- products with need for additional information
More frequent in specific situations e.g. Pandemic situation, targeted safety issues
