When the funding for the grant DT/E010334/1 and/or the Research Code R26056 ended, Brunel University would have been required to submit detailed final report(s) to the Technology Strategy Board about the work carried out in this grant.
I would like to request an electronic copy/copies of the final report(s) submitted to the TSB, which is now Innovate UK, please.
Could you kindly also include any financial statements that may have given a breakdown of the manner in which the grant money was eventually utilised by Brunel University.

I'm trying to track down catalogue records for 19thc pamphlets the Higher Education Funding Council (which I see is the predecessor of the UKRI) apparently made available some 15 years ago. All I'm working from is a mention in an article written by former LSE librarian Barbara Humphries in 2013. It writes: 'Funding from the Higher Education Funding Council made available catalogue records for 200,000 nineteenth-century pamphlets in the major research libraries in the UK. Digitization of 25,000 of these was funded by the Joint Information Systems Committee along with other key digitization projects in 2006'.
I'm using the 25,000 digitised pamphlets for a paper I'm writing, but information on the 200,000 it was drawn from would be so helpful for my research. Are you able to help me, or point me towards people who may?

I am emailing regarding the progression of Alterations and Extension for Astronomy Technology Centre at UK Astronomy Technology Centre, Edinburgh, where I believe Cleanroom & Containment Facilities Ltd is the Main contractor.
I'm just trying to establish if the works have commenced on site and how (are?) the works currently progressing due to the current situation.
If Yes, I would like to know when did it started on-site and the contract period please?
