The UK's ESRC published a revised ‘Framework for Research Ethics (FRE)’<http://www.esrcsocietytoday.ac.uk/ESRCINFOCENTRE/OPPORTUNITIES/research_ethics_framework/>, which is available in full on the Web. I thought the six key principles of ethical research — principles that the ‘ESRC expects to be addressed whenever applicable' — are very useful guidelines, but I'd welcome any comment.
