Let $(Q, q)$ be a quadratic space over a commutative ring $R$ in which $2$ is invertible, and consider the Dickson--Siegel--Eichler--Roy's subgroup $EO_{R}(Q, H(R)^{m})$ of the orthogonal group $O_R(Q \perp H(R)^m)$, with rank $Q= n \geq 1$ and $m\geq 2$. We show that $EO_{R}(Q, H(R)^{m})$ is a normal subgroup of $O_R(Q \perp H(R)^m)$, for all $m\geq 2$. We also prove that the DSER group $EO_{R}(Q, H(P))$ is a normal subgroup of $O_{R}(Q \perp H(P))$, where $Q$ and $H(P)$ are quadratic spaces over a commutative ring $R$, with rank $(Q) \ge 1$ and rank $(P) \ge 2$.
