Myths
6
HRECs forbid the sharing of data Data must be destroyed after a certain time Ethics clearance once given cannot be amended

The reality
7
HRECs have many issues to deal with and data sharing is just one of them
Much data is shareable but not all There are three practical steps which researchers
can consider if they want to share their data Planning ahead is the key
![Page 8: Ethics, Consent and Data Sharing](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062323/5681602f550346895dcf47e1/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
The Victoria University experience Ethics form now includes:
Is there any ethical reason NOT to share the data from this project?
Can the information collected on the ethics form be re-used in other places, such as collecting project descriptions for Office of Research reporting purposes?

What researchers can do1. Incorporate data sharing and dissemination
intentions into research planning2. Discuss these intentions with the institution’s
HREC3. Take practical steps to ensure that data can be
disseminated and shared

What HRECs can do
1. Ensure that the issue of data sharing and dissemination is addressed in ethics applications
2. Actively support the data sharing aspects of funder requirements
3. Provide advice on what data can be shared and how4. Provide advice about appropriate data storage and
access facilities and support the development of these facilities locally
5. Support the need for data management planning13
