EMOMW tal Research 2=3M and Budget
n-da pap4w anticipates that the R&D activities at Saxthwpton win be
restructured such that all Graup Fundamental Research (tagedw with a
reduced technical support program for BAMM) is corcIucted at this
loostion. Mch of the exploratory and applied research will be
transferred cut or tomminsted.
The proposed Group Fundamental Research Programme covers the following
(topics i to vi are on-going and were agreed at the 1989 R&D conference
and topics vii to x are re=mwded as a result of restructiwirq):
(i) To redxm mirxw constituents of smoke that are of current or potential
interest to regulators.
Scientists 3, Technicians 6 Cbst: 0. 60
Ui) To acquire emerging technology in to makA comparisons of the
biological activity of prCducts.
Scientists 3, Teduticians 4 Oost: 0. 49
(iii) To set Environmental Tobacco SmokA in Pruper Perspective in relation to
indoor air coe tituents
Scientists 1, Technicians 4 Cost: 0. 31
(iv) Tlo study the chemical and toxicological impact of the combustion of
tobacco additives
Scientists 3, Technicians 3 Cost: 0. 43
(V) To study nicatins and flavour transfer to aerosols by heating
wiU=ut cm*wtion (Project Nova) -
Scientists 4, Technicians 2 Oost: 0. 47
(Vi) To provide GroW Advisory Service in Regulatory Issues.
Scientists 1, Technicians 1. Cost: 0. 15
(vii) To investigate the combustion science that will cwrtrihft to a reduction
in ignition potential of cigarettes.
Scientists 2, Technicians 2 Oost: 0.29
(viii) To build an understanding of taste and flavcur in relation to
chislicai/physical StructLirs Of smoks.
Scientists 4, Technicians 3 Cost: 0. 52
(ix) Tb create rvew or modified materials as a base for ultra low tar/nic.

-(x)-- To irroestigate the science of stabilised foam structures as a basis for
Arture action technology.
SCientists 1, TedrdCians 2 Ocat: 0. 2
Total (FwAmwital): 56 - Scieritists 26, Tedhxd=iam 30, Cost C3.98 M.
Zws, the total cost includiM work on project Greaziot 11 and III is
extimted to be E3.98 m. for an effort equivalwit. to 56 man-yeam. If
the ;M F , I rSstn=bxdng is not inplamentted this cost would reKb=a to
C3.11 mn. f= a total effort of 41 MWI-5mMars.
Cn the basis of allocation of costs to CAC caqwnies agreed previously
(and bm=porating the pruvicus contribution by AmtU into the BATCo
element) the individual costs fw akCs in 1990 would be (1989 figures
agreed at the March meeting of MW are sham in brackets):
BATCO 32% x 93.98 91.27 (El. U)
Br(w 30% x C1.19 (El.04)
ITL 19% x CO.76 (CO.66)
BATC? 194 x CO.76 (CO.66)
AdditionAilly, funding for the Scientific Research Group projects (witernal
proJects in the area of moking Issues) has previously I ml g I at this
meating. The ; I - I S;G budget for IM is C3",OOo (Cf C330,000 in
1989). Mm this cum the ,,a - -4 are normally dazed on an equal
ow7tributions basis by the C%Cs. In view of the reduction of omitributors
to fow, the prWooed S;G contribztion for each CAC country is C86,000 (cf
E66,000 in 1989).
