Positive decision (the approval mail)
Research may not start before the ethics committee has formally issued a positive review-decision of the planned research as submitted for review.
A positive decision is issued in an ‘approval mail’ from EC Request.
The EC-BSS may withdraw a positive review-decision if it becomes apparent that the research is not being carried out as described in EC Request, or if it becomes clear that continuing the research could place the participants in unacceptable situations or subject them to unacceptable risks.
