Pharmaceutical firms can also use special tax credits available only for firms that perform certain kinds of R D. Since 1981, the tax code has included a tax credit for increases in qualifying R D expenses. This credit carried a statutory rate of 25 percent until 1986, when it was reduced to 20 percent. Quantifying the extent to which this credit reduces the cost of R D for pharmaceutical firms is impossible for two reasons 1) the credit depends on the amount that a firm increases R D expenditures, not on the level of those expenses and 2) expenditures on supervisory activities or overhead do not qualify for the credit.

In addition, plant-inspections serve to focus surveillance measures on certain priorities that have gradually become known in the course of supervisory activities. 

In order to facilitate practical support allowing interpretations and explicit applications of these new requirements, an expert group on PSA in the frame supervisory activities, chaired by the Federal Office for Radiation Protection (BIS), has been established in fall 2012. One topic of discussions is the definition of a significant impact on the PSA results. Moreover, practical examples shall be collected to illustrate a possible risk informed approach.
