I. General Policy The Council for Tobacco Research-U.S.A., Inc. is dedicated to the support of the investigation of fundamental matters relating to a connection be- tween tobacco use and human health. In so doing The Council for Tobacco Research-U.S.A., Inc. recognizes the Importance of independcnt research by competent investigators. Grants are made only after careful consideration of the merits of pro- posals and of the qualifications of the individual and his institution undertaking the work. The Council desires to have scientists work with the greatest freedom and without domination of any kind. It will make no attempt to direct the administration of the project once started, to in- fluence its course or to control its results other than to be assured that the funds are properly expended for the purposes of the grant and that all findings are reported in accordance with the best scientific practice. II. Payments and Budgets Unless otherwise requested at the time of ini- tiating a specific grant, Aayments will be made quarterly in advance to the institution at which re- search is being conducted. Grants may not be transferred from one idstitu- tlon to another due to a change in affiliation by the principal Investigator without express permission. The contract for a grant may be terminated prior to normal expiration date by the grantee upon noti- fication to the Secretary of The Council for To- bacco Reseuch-U.S.A., Inc. with a statement of die reasons for tennination. Budgets are presumed to be accurate at die time of issuance of a grant. However if, for unforeseen reasons, additional funds or reapportionmcnts of funds are required such request will be considered upon receipt of a complete statement of reasons for such change. At the time of expiration of a grant or in the event of its termination, unexpended funds shall be returned to The Council for Tobacco Research- U.S.A., Inc. If, at such expiration or termination, additional projects are anticipated and are approved such funds may, upon request, be applied against the new grant at the time of its issuance. III. Reports Grantees are to furnish a report of activities annually. These need not be extensive but should be sufficiently informative to permit The Council to know what Is being accomplished. At the con- clusion of a project a detailed report is expected which shall be given in writing to The Council. An expenditure report must be made by the grantee annually. I i! Exchange of Information With the consent of the grantee, The Council may recommend the exchange of interim informa- tion between investigators working on different projects if the interim results indicate a relatio%m ship between projects. This will only be done with the ~ object of assisting and expediting work in processiX ~ 4 V. Publication and Public Information The Council for Tobacco Research-U.S.A., Inc. advocates the initial presentation by the In- vestigator of research results only in accepted medical and scientific journals or before accepted medical or scientific societies. It has no objection to d'ts- semination to the public of any or all final con- clusions from projects in these ways. Information from annual or final reports will be released publicly only with the permission of the investigator. When a journal or society schedules the presen- tation of any findings from a project, The Council will expect a statement or abstract from the grantee covering the date and general subject matter of his presentation. While no speeial funds ue provided to assist publication of results covering costs of Illustrating, typesetting or other expenditures, The Council will consider a request for such funds upon presentation of the manuscript to be published.
