  1. Nowadays, e-mail is a major communication tool in clinical research. To what extent should e-mails be printed as a paper trail according to GCP or according to the "spirit" of GCP? Should all of them be printed and kept or would it be sufficient to keep the e-mails electronically with a good backup system in place. Do we need to separate site communications from internal e-mail in this respect?
    It was agreed that it is currently general practice within the industry to print all E-mails off and file them as for any other record.  For communication with the investigator, it was recommended that these be signed and dated before filing.  Internal E-mails need not be signed or dated, but should be filed, and separately from the site communication.
