Following the Research Policy Committee meeting on 17 January 2013, we can confirm that from 8 February 2013 there will be new deadlines for submitting grant applications to the Research Operations Office (ROO).
In summary, Departments are asked to risk assess applications for the following and determine whether they are ‘higher’ or ‘lower’ risk:
-

As agreed by Department and ROO Assistant Director
The following deadlines will then apply:
