Between Annual Conferences, individual Members are encouraged to exchange information and to visit each other’s Centres as often as they wish or is practicable. Centres are invited to distribute to the Members any information arising from their research that they think will be of interest or concern to others.

 The Secretary General shall arrange from time to time a more formal exchange of information by listing and distributing a summary of current work and projected work from all the Centres on an annual basis.

 A sole Research Centre may, if it so desires, call upon the services of the Secretary General to assist in any programme which the Centre might wish to hold within its national boundaries, provided the Secretary General’s expenses are reimbursed by the Centre.

 Topic Seminars may be held within the main body of the Annual Conference, provided they are open to all Members and do not clash with any other planned event.

 All information provided by a Research Centre, whether it be written, video, electronic or presentation format, is the sole property of the originator. Should any other Research Centre or the Secretary General wish to pass such information to a third party, then the prior permission of the originator must be obtained.

 However, any conclusion or general item of policy, which might be formulated by the RCAR as a result of a single or several submissions of papers or presentations by individual Members, shall be the property of the RCAR as a body. In this case, should any Research Centre or the Secretary General wish to pass on such a conclusion or general item of policy in written format other than the written format produced by the Council, they shall seek the advice of the Steering Committee through the Chairman. In order to avoid undue delay in this situation, it may be appropriate for RCAR Members to agree to the general release of the information when it is formulated at the Annual Conference.
