Request

Request Received: 1 May 2024:

I would like to request the following information relating to grants that were awarded by the EPSRC:

1. Information relating to the EPSRC Project Reference EP/T030801/1 (Tracer-free, non-intrusive, time- and space-resolved temperature and scalar measurements): This project was due to end on 31 July 2023, but was extended to 31 January 2024. I would like access to all relevant information regarding the application for a no-cost extension to the project. In particular, I would like to know when the application was submitted (including any correspondence regarding it), why it was made, and when it was granted.

2. Information relating to the EPSRC Project Reference EP/T030925/1 (Tracer-free, non-intrusive, time- and space-resolved temperature and scalar measurements): This project was due to end on 31 July 2023, but was extended to 31 January 2024. I would like access to all relevant information regarding the application for a no-cost extension to the project. In particular, I would like to know when the application was submitted (including any correspondence regarding it), why it was made, and when it was granted.

3. Information relating to the EPSRC Project Reference EP/T030623/1 (Tracer-free, non-intrusive, time- and space-resolved temperature and scalar measurements): This project was due to end on 31 July 2023, but was extended to 31 January 2024. I would like access to all relevant information regarding the application for a no-cost extension to the project. In particular, I would like to know when the application was submitted (including any correspondence regarding it), why it was made, and when it was granted.

4. As all three grants relate to the same collaborative project, I would like to know whether each Principal Investigator had to apply for the same extension length or whether all three could have applied for different extension lengths (e.g. a 6 month extension for projects EP/T030801/1 and EP/T030623/1, and a 7 month extension for project EP/T030925/1).

5. I would like to know whether it was possible for a further no-cost extension application to be made for project EP/T030925/1 (with an appropriate justification).
