AI Summary

This bill amends the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act to allow the Secretary of Health and Human Services to grant a waiver of the annual establishment registration fee for small businesses. The bill defines a "small business" as an entity that reported $1 million or less in gross receipts or sales in its most recent federal income tax return, including its affiliates. To qualify for the waiver, the small business must demonstrate financial hardship in paying the fee for that year, and must provide supporting documentation such as tax returns or certifications from the national taxing authority. The decision of the Secretary on whether to grant the waiver is not subject to review.
