MINIMAL RISK APPLICATIONS


The above submission and meeting dates do not apply to Minimal Risk applications as these are assessed by the Chair of the Social Science HREC on behalf of the full committee. Minimal Risk applications may be submitted at any time.


Once the Chair has assessed the Minimal Risk application (usually within 5 -10 days), you will receive an email from her containing any revisions that may be required before ethics approval can be granted, or she will inform you of immediate ethics approval.


Please forward all applications and supporting documents to Marilyn Knott at Marilyn.Knott@utas.edu.au. A hard copy of the application and supporting documents must also be submitted to: Marilyn Knott, Private Bag 1, Hobart 7001.
