This manual provides operational and technical details for the performance evaluation (PE) exercise that must be conducted for a regulatory authority (RA) to achieve listing as a WHO-listed authority (WLA) in relation to each regulatory function. The PE manual should be read in conjunction with the Operational guidance for evaluating and publicly designating regulatory authorities as WHO-listed authorities (“The Operational Guidance”). For the purposes of this document the term regulatory authority (RA), unless otherwise stated, may refer to either a national regulatory authority (NRA) or a regional regulatory system (RRS). The basis for designation as a WLA is provided by the Global Benchmarking Tool (GBT), which is complemented by a series of PE activities designed to establish a detailed picture of how the regulatory system performs on relevant regulatory processes, including how consistently it adheres to quality procedures and how well it delivers the desired regulatory outputs in accordance with good regulatory practices.

Vaccines are powerful weapons in the fight against pandemic viruses as shown by responses to both the 2009 H1N1 influenza and the COVID-19 pandemics. However, planning for accessing, allocating and deploying vaccines in a pandemic situation is a complex endeavour, beset with multiple challenges at all levels – local, regional and global. The World Health Organization (WHO) and its partners have prepared this revised guidance document to assist countries update their national deployment and vaccination plans (NDVPs) by leveraging global learnings from past pandemic responses, including the recent COVID-19 vaccination effort. The development and testing of a NDVP would not only advance pandemic preparedness efforts but would also have benefits in terms of increasing national capabilities to manage other health emergencies which require emergency vaccination campaigns.
