General
��

To ‘promote legal research and scholarship’, the Trust will entertain applications for small grants of up to $5,000 in support of legal research and scholarship.

This support is entirely at the discretion of the Trust, and is not confined to any particular form of support.
��

Guidelines

1. There is no application form. All applications are to be made in writing to the Chair of the Trust spelling out:
   1. the nature of the support sought
   2. the reasons why the Trust should support it
   3. how the proposal promotes legal research and scholarship
   4. and a detailed budget, including justification of each item of proposed expenditure.
2. There is no entitlement to any funds. Funding is at the complete discretion of the Trustees and decisions of the Trust are final. The Trust will, however, look favourably upon applications that have a link with the ΢��ҕ�l and the Canterbury Law Review.
3. Publications from a funded proposal may be required to be offered for publication in the Canterbury Law Review.
4. GST will not be paid to applicants who are GST registered or who undertake the research as part of an organization that is GST registered (including but not limited to academic staff of universities) and such applicants should not include a claim for GST in their proposed budgets.
5. Funding of amounts up to and including $1000 will be paid after the fact on production of proof of payment for items or services. Proof may consist of receipts or copies of bank statements.
6. Funding of amounts over $1000 will be paid up-front to a nominated bank account as soon as reasonably practicable after the application has been considered, but proof of payment must be made within six months or funds granted must be returned. Any funds not expended within six months will also have to be returned.
7. Successful applicants must file a short report within 30 days of expenditure of the funds or conclusion of the funded activity, whichever is the later. The report must itemize how the grant was expended and explain how it promoted legal research and scholarship.
8. Successful applicants must acknowledge the funding in any publications, advertisements or events which result partially or fully from the funding.
