Withdrawal policy: interim change in policy for protocols (November 2021)

In anticipation of upcoming changes to process and policy relating to protocol withdrawals, as of 1 December 2021 protocols should not be withdrawn for reasons other than serious error.

If you do wish to withdraw a protocol for any reason, or if you have any questions about this, please contact emd@cochrane.org. There will be a further update on the withdrawals process and policies in early 2022.
