The Chief Operating Officer of EPSRC has brought an incident of inappropriate use of funds by an HEI to our attention. It is related to payments for dinner that are contrary to the conditions for RCUK grants. Most other funders have similar policies. Please find the full message from EPSRC here. Please note that future reviews of grants undertaken by the RCUK Funding Assurance Programme will pay particular attention to this type of expenditure.
