Is the local principal investigator required to submit annual reports to the lead HREC that approved the project?
Local principal investigators are not required to submit progress/annual reports on the ethical conduct of the project at their site directly to the lead HREC, unless this is a condition of ethical approval. Rather, the co-ordinating investigator reports on the ethical conduct of the study at all sites. The co-ordinating investigator may do so by collating individual reports from each site, or by preparing a single summary report. This is at the discretion of the co-ordinating investigator and the research team.
