  • Eligible entities;
  • The self-assessment process;
  • Categories of ineligible expenditure;
  • Records relevant to substantiating the R&D process through systematic progression of work i.e. from hypothesis to conclusions. E.g. emails, project plans, annual reports, lab notebooks and meeting minutes;
  • Records relevant to substantiating expenditure including invoices, contractors and employee activity reports;
  • Logistics of the registration and claiming process;
  • Common mistakes often cited by the programme regulators.

The podcast is available on The Government’s website.
