Authorise
When the CA authorises an application, the CI/PS is allowed to start.
To authorise an application, follow these steps:
Click Authorise at the top right corner of the page.
A pop-up will appear.
Choose if the opinion of the Responsible Ethics Committee is positive or unknown. You can provide comments and add the document for validation.
Note
The field Responsible Ethics Committee opinion will appear only if the Sponsor has indicated in the application (under National information) that the opinion of the Ethics Committee is unknown. It will not appear if it has been specified that the opinion is positive.
The negative opinion is not an option on the list, because if it is negative, the CI/PS is not allowed to start.
Important
It is possible to authorise the application without the opinion of the Ethics Committee. Nonetheless, before the CI/PS starts, the Sponsor must provide the positive opinion of the Ethics Committee.
Once you are done, click Complete action.
The application will change to Authorised.
