Changes or amendments of a study already聽approved by Mattilsynet
If you need to make changes in a project alreday approved by Mattilsynet you must apply for permission in FOTS ("Request for changes")
You must also apply for prolongation for a study - but for continuation for more that 4 years you must send a completely new FOTS application.
You must update the project summary including:
- Purpose of the study
- Expected harm/severity for the animals
- Expected benefit for science or society
- How many and what kind of animals will be used (totally in this experiment)
- How are compliance with the requirements for replacement, reduction and refinement safeguarded
I must clarify how changes will influence animals, how many animals that are affected聽by the change and you have to update the ,
For minor changes with no negative impact on or event improvements for animals聽聽- you only have to send a 鈥淣otification about changes鈥� in FOTS
