Research Grants Scheme

Section 6(2A) of the Workers' Compensation (Dust Diseases) Act 1942 authorises the Dust Diseases Board to fund research into dust diseases. Applications for funding undergo a rigorous, competitive evaluation process with the final decisions on the award of grants made by a meeting of the members of the Board.
