The meanings of the Categories are as follows:

• Category 1: Approved proposals for which the Technical Review Panel (TRP) sought no clarifications or only minor ones. Clarifications must be provided within 4 weeks. Final approval of clarifications must be issued by the TRP Chair and/or Vice-Chair.
• Category 2: Approved proposals for which the TRP sought a number of clarifications. Clarifications must be provided within 6 weeks. Any follow-up queries must be answered and finally approved by the TRP within 3 to 4 months. Approval of clarifications must be issued by the TRP Chair and/or Vice-Chair, plus the TRP primary and secondary reviewers.Note: Proposals assigned to Category 2 were sub-divided into sub-Categories 2A and 2B, based on how many clarifications were needed. All these proposals were approved, but for technical reasons, approval of the Category 2B proposals only takes full effect in January 2004. At a practical level, this difference has no impact. All applicants whose proposals were approved (i.e. whose proposals fell into Categories 1, 2A and 2B) will be asked to answer the clarifications and then to negotiate grant agreements during the remainder of 2003.
• Category 3: Proposals not recommended in their present form, but regarding which applicants are encouraged to submit improved applications in future Rounds.
• Category 4: Proposals not recommended for funding, and regarding which the TRP provides no encouragement that applicants should re-apply in future Rounds.
