(e) keeping abreast of the research being done in the territory of the Parties and in other
countries;
(f) liaising with international bodies, when appropriate;

industrial property rights and commercially confidential material;
(h) providing for the evaluation of the research carried out during the Action when drawing up
the annual progress reports and the final report;

substantial change in the Action framework including requests for extension or prolongation.
