Ethics Committee
(IAEC)
Animal Ethics
Term used to describe human-animal relationships and how
animals ought to be managed and treated. It includes,
• Animal rights
• Animal welfare
• Animal law
• Animal cognition
• Wildlife conservation
• Moral status of nonhuman animals
5 Freedoms of Animal Welfare
• Freedom from hunger or thirst by ready access to fresh water and a
diet to maintain full health and vigour
• Freedom from discomfort by providing an appropriate environment
including shelter and a comfortable resting area
• Freedom from pain, injury or disease by prevention or rapid
diagnosis and treatment
• Freedom to express (most) normal behaviour by providing
sufficient space, proper facilities and company of the animal's own
kind
• Freedom from fear and distress by ensuring conditions and
treatment which avoid mental suffering
Prevention of Cruelty to Animals
Act 1960
• Individuals conducting experiments must be qualified, and the
experiments are performed under their full responsibility
• Experiments to be performed with due care and humanity, as
far as possible, experiments involving operations are performed
under the influence of some anaesthetic
• During course of experiments performed under the influence
of anaesthetics, if an animal becomes so injured that recovery
would involve serious suffering, it will be euthanised while
still anaesthetised.
Prevention of Cruelty to Animals
Act 1960
• Experiments on animals are avoided wherever it is
possible to do so, if other teaching devices such as
books, models, films and the like may equally suffice
• Experiments on larger animals are avoided when it is
possible to achieve the same results by experiments upon
small laboratory animals, such as guinea-pigs, rabbits,
frogs and rats
• Experiments are not performed merely for the purpose
of acquiring manual skill
Prevention of Cruelty to Animals
Act 1960
• Animals intended for the performance of experiments are
properly looked after both before and after experiments
• Suitable records are maintained with respect to
experiments performed on animals.
CPCSEA & IAEC
• Currently in India, experimentation on animals is covered
under the provisions of Prevention of Cruelty to
Animals Act, (PCA Act) 1960 and the Rules under the
amended Act of 1998 and 2001.
• Implemented through Committee for the Purpose of
Control & Supervision of Experiments on Animals
(CPCSEA), established in 1964 under Section 15(1) of the
PCA Act under the Ministry of Environment Forest &
Climate Change
CPCSEA & IAEC
• Institutional Animal Ethics Committees (IAECs)
constituted in registered laboratories under CPCSEA
• Currently, there are 86 medical universities, 80 pharmacy
colleges, 35 veterinary universities and 464 institutions
that use animals for biomedical/regulatory research
Institutional Animals Ethics Committee
As defined in “Breeding of and Experiments on Animals
(Control and Supervision) Rules, 1998”:
Institutional Animals Ethics Committee means a body
comprising of a group of persons recognized and
registered by the CPCSEA, performed in an
establishment which is constituted and operated in
accordance with procedures specified for the purpose
by the Committee.
Objective of IAEC
To contribute to the effective functioning of the Institutional
Animal Ethics Committee (IAEC) so that a standard and
consistent ethical review procedure for animal research is
practised for all proposals dealt by the Committee as
prescribed by the CPCSEA under PCA Act 1960 and
Breeding and Experimentation Rules 1998.
Functions of IAEC
• 8 member IAEC that includes a nominee of the
CPCSEA is constituted in every registered institute as a
necessary prerequisite
• All research project proposals using small animals, such
as rats, mice, rabbits or guinea-pigs, have to be approved
by the IAEC before initiation
• Every member of the IAEC has the right to
question/disapprove of a project; unapproved
proposals are referred to a subcommittee of experts for
scrutiny and possible approval
Functions of IAEC
• IAEC cannot approve research projects on large
animals, such as dogs, cats, nonhuman primates, cattle,
goats, sheep, and so forth, and can only recommend the
same to the sub-committee of the CPCSEA, which, alone,
has the power to approve projects on higher vertebrates
• Monitoring research throughout the study and after
completion of study through periodic reports and visit
animal house and laboratory where the experiments are
conducted.
Functions of IAEC
• The committee has to ensure compliance with all
regulatory requirements, applicable rules, guidelines and
laws
• IAEC accords quality and consistency in review of
research proposals and to prevent infliction of
unnecessary pain & sufferings before, during and after
experiments on animals, to follow the CPCSEA
guidelines.

  • 11. Functions of IAEC • 8 member IAEC that includes a nominee of the CPCSEA is constituted in every registered institute as a necessary prerequisite • All research project proposals using small animals, such as rats, mice, rabbits or guinea-pigs, have to be approved by the IAEC before initiation • Every member of the IAEC has the right to question/disapprove of a project; unapproved proposals are referred to a subcommittee of experts for scrutiny and possible approval
  • 12.
