Low and neglible risk applications
“Research is ‘low risk’ where the only foreseeable risk is one of discomfort. Where the risk, even if unlikely is more serious than discomfort, the research is not low risk” – National Statement on Ethical Conduct in Human Research (2007) (S2.1.6)
Steps to submitting a low to negligible risk application:
Submit the HREA QLD (low risk pathway) and SSA via the ERM Applications system.
Checklist for Low or Negligible Risk Submission
Ensure all supporting documents, including CVs are uploaded against the LNR Qld form via the ERM Applications system.
There are no deadlines for submission of HREA low risk pathway studies to the CHQ HREC.
