Still 8d to do this HRA consultation. I've replied & agreed the proposal sounds 'okay'. Main suggestion from me was to check that reliance on verbal consent, with likely process burden around it, is definitely better than efficient/flexible written consent methods (especially with rise of eConsent)
HRA seeking views on effectively verbal consent for some low risk medicine trials, deadline 10th Jan. Step in an interesting direction. Wonder if we might eventually see some lowest-risk trials being opt-out rather than -in? Obviously a few steps away from that still
