Funding

Funding criteria

The McGarvie Smith Institute seeks applications for projects involving veterinary and related sciences and whose outcomes are of demonstrable benefit to the production livestock industries of New South Wales.

Preference will be given to applicants from New South Wales.

Given its limited capital base, the McGarvie Smith Institute is looking to maximise the benefit of project funding. Therefore, applications for projects which are collaboratively funded from other sources, or which require initial "seed" funding will be viewed favourably.

The Institute does not fund salaries.

Applications from employees of an organisation must be endorsed by the relevant General Manager, Director or Departmental Head.

Application procedure

Applications may be submitted by e-mail to Neil Hillman nhillman@nexiacourt.com.au or by mail to:

Neil Hillman
Partner
Nexia Court and Co Chartered Accountants
Australia Square
Level 29, 264 George Street
SYDNEY NSW 2000

McGarvie Smith Institute trustees meet quarterly to consider applications. To be considered in the corresponding quarter applications must be received by 31 January; 30 April; 31 July or 31 October.

Applicants may be requested to provide further information or to attend a meeting in person to clarify aspects of the application.

Funding procedure

Funding for approved projects will be made available within the following quarter and will be conditional on satisfactory conduct of the project and submission of regular reports.

Enquiries about the process for submission, the outcome of applications, or funding procedure may be directed to Neil Hillman on (02) 8264 0787.

Enquiries about project content or presentation may be directed to Bruce Christie on (02) 6391 3717.
