Researchers working across the four United Kingdom countries should find it easier to set up and carry out health research across the NHS and Health and Social Care in Northern Ireland (HSC) as a result of a 4 National Compatibility Programme.
Sponsors of both commercial and non-commercial research will benefit from these changes, particularly when setting up studies with sites in more than one UK country.
From 16 April 2018 all researchers starting new applications in IRAS with sites in Wales will complete a Statement of Activities/schedule of events (SoA/SoE) rather than Site Specific Information (SSI) applications. ‘In flight studies’ which have already started an SSI application will continue to use this route. Until 10 June 2018, applications on either documentation will be accepted in Wales, but after this date all applications should be submitted using SoA/SoE.
