Yes. I've been talking to one Uni that didn't apply. They are confused why
the others applied as well.

I think serious questions need to be asked as to why the universities think
they are entitled or even eligible to apply - and who approved them.

Question. If the result of funding is public, why aren't the applications
that funding?  Everyone else has to publicly disclose what they do in
relation to most government funding, so why not this?
