Summary
- Agree a common minimum for funding, governance, service and national-network contribution.
- Review the compact on a fixed cycle using measured use, inclusion, incidents and unmet demand.
EllaLink is a visible achievement, but RedCLARA’s durable asset is the federation that converts capacity into research service. That federation needs more than successive project names. The next useful evidence is a member-approved compact with renewal dates and consequences for missed commitments. Permanence is not endless ownership; it is a repeatable decision to sustain shared infrastructure.
