Permits to work in research program
Organisations that conduct teaching or research programs involving animals must apply for a registration to do so.
If you’re working in these programs, you must also apply for a permit from the relevant animal ethics committee for their approval - unless you’re assisting someone who does have a permit.
If you conduct these programs without a permit, you can be prosecuted.
