Decision: (Ming) 4 September 2024 to only include grants against relevant codes, and not use text filters (which bring in false positives). As a result about 10% of eligible grants - those not linked to eligible codes - will be excluded

Sources

ARC codes include FOR codes for 2020, 2008; RFCD codes for 1998; and SEO codes for 2020, 2008 and 1998

1998 RFCD and SEO codes

2008 and 2020 SEO and FOR codes

Overlaps

Current issue with RFCD codes 1998 duplicating newer codes FOR 2020 - requires checking
Proposed solution - start at 2009
Solution for later - separate RFCD codes form FOR codes in Elastic Search
