The intellectual property developed as a result of the research funded by the Agency’s R&D Program remains the property of the funding recipient as defined in the Contribution Agreement. Funding provided by the R&D Program is a contribution to a research project rather than a contract for the production of a research product (such as a report, seminar, electronic tool, etc.). The Agency attaches a disclaimer to all research reports posted on the Web site stating that the views, conclusions and recommendations expressed in the reports are those of the authors and do not represent the views of the Canadian Environmental Assessment Agency or the Government of Canada.
