CSAC will also make the questionnaire available through other means, e.g. by sharing a link to the questionnaire online or sharing it with industrial or academic groups for further dissemination. All individuals who are invited to respond to the questionnaire, or who access and respond to the questionnaire through public means, will be data subjects for the purposes of this project.

1.7 Final report and acknowledgments
Once this project is complete the findings will be published in a Roadmap report. This will include an acknowledgment section listing and thanking all respondents, including respondents’ name, role and organisation.
