The HREA has recently registered its HREB with the Office for Human Research Protections (OHRP) for Federalwide Assurance (FWA) purposes. In Newfoundland and Labrador, if your institution or organization has an OHRP - approved FWA, then you must designate the HREB as an affiliated external HREB.
The identification information for the HREB is: IRB00008506 - Health Research Ethics Authority IRB#1. This registration is listed on the OHRP website (please click here).
