# Commission Decision of 9 December 2010 amending Decision C(2007) 2286 on the adoption of ERC Rules for the submission of proposals and the related evaluation, selection and award procedures for indirect actions under the Ideas Specific Programme of the Seventh Framework Programme (2007 to 2013) (Text with EEA relevance) (2010/767/EU), Division: Submission to an Ethics Screening Panel

Extent: E+W+S+N.I.

All proposals identified at pre-screening level as raising ethical issues are submitted to an Ethics Screening Panel composed of independent experts with the appropriate skills in ethics.
Panel experts identify those proposals in which the ethical issues are satisfactorily addressed, those that can be cleared provided satisfactory documentary information and/or approval at national level is given, and those that require further attention due to the importance of the ethical issues raised and that need to be submitted to Ethics Review.
For each proposal screened, the experts prepare and sign and Ethics Screening report which includes a requirements section. These requirements become contractual obligations.
