Abstract
Who should be publicly authorised to consider legal issues in research? This paper argues that public policy should authorise ethics committees to consider legal issues about their own actions regarding particular research proposals; and that it should not authorise them to consider legal issues regarding the actions of their applicants, or the actions of third parties.
