This website has been developed by the Animal Research Review Panel and NSW Department of Primary Industries - Animal Welfare Branch. It aims to assist researchers, teachers and members of Animal Ethics Committees to access information about the operation of the Animal Research Act 1985, Animal Research Regulation 2010 and The Code of Practice in New South Wales.

It is nearly forty years since the first committees were established to review the ethical acceptability of research using animals. Modelled on comparable committees concerned with human subjects, the establishment of animal ethical review committees recognized that such activities presented ethical challenges and that, given the level of controversy in the wider community, scientists needed to demonstrate responsibility and accountability for their actions. These committees now have been established in many countries, albeit with differences in their charter and standing; in some countries, the role of the committee is mandated in legislation. There have been few reviews into the operation of animal ethical review committees, but available evidence raises questions as to the outcomes of the ethical review process and effective engagement with the wider community. The ethical review process would be strengthened by reflection upon and reaffirmation of expected goals and a better understanding and recognition of the broader context within which a committee operates. 

The purpose of the Australian code for the care and use of animals for scientific purposes 8th edition 2013 (the Code) is to promote the ethical, humane and responsible care and use of animals used for scientific purposes. The ethical framework and governing principles set out in the Code  provide guidance for investigators, teachers, institutions, animal ethics committees and all people involved in the care and use of animals for scientific purposes.
