There is a need to build the evidence base relating to research integrity from all parts of the sector, the UK Committee on Research Integrity has said in its first annual statement.

The organisation, which is responsible for promoting and driving research integrity in the UK, laid out its recommendations in line with the five key principles set out in the Concordat to Support Research Integrity: rigour, transparency and open communication, honesty, care and respect, and accountability.
