HRA Update: Simplifying the process of seeking and recording consent in low risk clinical trials
Date: 12 December 2024
The laws which regulate the way clinical trials of medicines are carried out in the UK are changing. One of the proposed changes to the law is to simplify the way that informed consent is sought and recorded in low risk clinical trials.
It is important that these proposed changes work for everyone, using an approach that people can trust.
The HRA want to hear feedback on the proposals from people who have taken part in research, people who may be considering taking part in research, members of the public, Research Ethics Committee members and the wider research community.
Your feedback will be used to help inform the future Clinical Trials regulations in the UK and supporting HRA guidance.
