Request

Request Received: 14 June 2024

I'm writing to submit a freedom of information request:

Was there an equality impact assessment prior to the EPSRC changing its assessment processes, so that instead of using primary and secondary criteria, prioritisation panels give equal weighting to a proposal's quality, importance, applicant and partnerships, and resources and management? If so, please provide an electronic copy of its findings.
