The Provincial RITHIM Committee (PRC) is a subcommittee of the Research Manitoba Board of Directors. The PRC reports through its Chair to the Research Manitoba Board of Directors. The primary responsibility of the Provincial RITHIM Committee (PRC) is to support the creation and provide oversight over RITHIM. The PRC will advise and oversee the Committee for the Harmonization of Health Impact, Privacy, and Ethics Review (CHIPER) to enable and support its role as a provincial research ethics board. Although PRC does not oversee the provincial Health Research Privacy Committee (PHRPC), it will oversee the administrative support provided by Research Manitoba (RITHIM division) to support PHRPC in performing its role efficiently and effectively under the Personal Health Information Act (PHIA).
