What is recommended with regard to minutes and reports of an IACUC?

0

USDA Research Facility Inspection Guide (http://www.aphis.usda.gov/animal_welfare/rig.shtml, section 6.2 on IACUC Review, requires minutes to list members in attendance, report all activities at meeting, and report minority views. It is customary to record the actual number of members approving, withholding approval or abstaining in a vote. Semi-annual reports are signed by a majority of IACUC members and report any minority views, with this report sent by the IACUC to the Institutional Official. Semi-annual program reviews must review the program of animal care and use – not just inspect facilities. A convenient checklist to use is the one formulated by NIH, found at http://grants.nih.gov/grants/olaw/sampledoc/cheklist.htm.
