 * Inability to admit all qualified applicants (CSP, p.13)
 * Inadequate funding for research partly attributable to poor marketing of research projects and weak proposal writing skills (CSP, p.14)
 * Policy review provides opportunity to be responsive to Mission – promote innovation, relevant and cutting edge technology – by taking cognisance of the changing realities of IP management in a digital age.
