>Rigel's representative responded, "There remains one question with regard
to the medical research. >This remaining issue is what do you propose
happen to the staff that works on the medical research >and the budget that
funds it?"
"Either bring in a new project or reassign the staff to another project and
amend the funding to another project as well. Or we can use that funding to
cover the new Safety personnel."
"I doubt that Starfleet Medical would appreciate getting new research
responsibilities without the personnel and budget that go with them.", the
Rigellan commented.
"With the transfer of research projects the approperiate staff and budget
should also be transfered. While I don't know the specific qualifications of
the effected personnel must have highly specialized qualifications. As such I
find it hard to believe that with medical research disappearing from R&D that
there would be another project that they would be suited for. Reassigning them
to SF Medical would be the most logical decision. Since the approved budget
included specific research projects, it stands to reason that the Council as a
whole thinks it necessary to fund it. Again, it sounds logical to have the
budgets follow the projects to SF Medical.", added the Terran Ambassador
finishing taking a look at the Vulcan ambassador.
