Peer comment(s):

agree Michael Martin, MA : Would make the verb active, though: "the court orders"

well my experience in UK is that bodies such as courts tend to use the passive form
neutral BrigitteHilgner : The asker does not mention it, but I'm pretty sure that this relates to the decision of an ethics committee - therefore I find "order" or "mandate" or "decree" inappropriate. // I agree with "notice of decision".

Notice of Decision

I guess "idiomatic" would be the wording chosen in the context " authorization/ approval of a clinical trial". Based on the source below, this would be "Notice of Decision".

cp:
Health Canada’s Summary Basis of Decision (SBD) documents outline the clinical trial information that was considered in approving a new drug. [...][8] Technical writers redact the documents based on the reviewers’ report, and revise them upon input and comments from the review team and the sponsoring company. [9] A general template drafted by Health Canada outlines the information to be included in the four major sections of the SBD (Figure 1): 1) Product and Submission Information 2) Notice of Decision 3) Scientific and Regulatory Basis for Decision and 4) Submission Milestones

disagree philgoddard : This answer makes no sense at all, and I can't understand why everyone is agreeing with it. It's not even the right part of speech. "Based on the above considerations, notice of decision"?

Well Phil, as you must know, 1:1 translations - i.e. a verb for a verb- are not always fitting: just think of the lengthy "whereas..." clauses in English contracts - in German simply translated as "Präambel"
disagree gangels (X) : Notice of Approval, if at all. Verfügung and Bewilligung are not the same, ergo the German grammar is imprecise to begin with
