Is it appropriate in a batch record to have large spaces, i.e., pages, for handwritten comments to be entered to document observations, etc., as well as spaces for entering data, i.e., tables.

Q7A does not prohibit it. Typically in a process under development, you would have large spaces
for recording observations. In a process that’s moved to commercial, you typically do not see that
amount of open space in a batch record for recording observations. However, you may have a
special situation where that makes sense. It’s not typical, but it may make sense in your
operation.
