The special equipment so procured should be returned to the Trust after the completion of the project; (e) administrative overhead fee levied by the applying institution/organisation would not be accepted; (f) recurrent costs would not be accepted; (g) contingency fee would not be accepted; (h) projects must be completed timely in accordance with the schedule of implementation as agreed by the Council; (i) when an applicant is requested by the Trust to provide additional information to support his application, he should supply the information within the period as stipulated by the Council. Failure to comply would be regarded as withdrawal of the application; and (j) the applicant’s track record (if any) in implementation of project with grant from the Trust will be taken into account.
