چکیده
We are entirely satisfied that the investigations performed on the children reported in the Lancet paper had been subjected to appropriate and rigorous ethical scrutiny. Because the nature of the condition affecting child behaviour and gastroenterological symptoms was unknown and required elucidation, the investigation of these children was properly submitted to and fully discussed by the Ethical Practices Committee at the Royal Free Hampstead in 1996. Specifically, that committee was a sub-committee of the then Camden and Islington Health Authority Research Ethics Committee (subsequently incorporated into the new Central Office for Research Ethics Committee arrangements) whose decisions were independent of the university and hospital. The committee, after clarifying a number of issues including that the children’s investigations were defined by the clinical symptomatology and diagnostic requirements, and having taken expert advice, approved the protocol submitted.
