A12.1 Proposals
A12.1.1 The Proposal must be submitted as a mature research plan presenting the proposed Project ready for implementation and must contain all the information necessary for its assessment without the need for further written or oral explanation, or reference to additional documentation, unless requested by the ARC.
A12.1.2 All details in the Proposal must be current at the time of submission.
A12.1.3 A Proposal may only be submitted once in the same funding round regardless of any variation in the proposed research, the listed participants and/or Administering Organisation.
A12.1.4 Applicants should note the eligibility criteria for access to other funding schemes, as expressed in the Funding Rules for those schemes. The ARC reserves the right to change these criteria in future funding rounds. Funding Rules for all ARC schemes may be found on the ARC website at www.arc.gov.au.
A12.1.5 Under the Industrial Transformation Training Centres, Industrial Transformation Research Hubs and Linkage Projects schemes, the Proposal must list all current funding and requested funding for the named participants under any ARC scheme, including Projects, Awards and Fellowships, or any other Commonwealth funding scheme.
A12.1.6 For additional scheme-specific requirements, including Proposal limits, refer to Parts B, C, D and E of these Funding Rules.
A12.1.7 Applicants who are applying for another ARC funding scheme (not covered by these Funding Rules) should consult the funding rules for the other scheme to determine if applying for or holding a Project under these Funding Rules will affect their eligibility for the other ARC funding scheme.
