The National Ethics Application Form (NEAF) is a web-based tool that enables researchers to complete research ethics proposals for submission to Human Research Ethics Committees (HRECs), and to assist HRECs to consistently and efficiently assess these proposals.

It has been designed to meet the requirements of relevant guidelines with the aim of increasing the efficiency and quality of the ethical review process for everyone involved. NEAF provides reference material and relevant guidelines, FAQ, comprehensive guidance on questions, and an online help guide.
