Both nations must agree to mutual research cooperation and as such will share any findings with each nation involved in the expedition. Article 1-c. The nation being asked can send a state official under the categories of military, political, medical or research if deemed necessary; the number of representatives can be negotiated by the countries/nations communicating with one another.

Any nation involved with an expedition may choose to evict foreign scientists for reasons of national security or the safety of the expedition team may appear to be at risk if communicated with the foreign government and given a week long notice. Article 1-e. Although unnecessary the results of continued research of a plant after its discovery is encouraged to be shared to the medical community and (if proved effective) produced on a global scale with the expedition and research nation's leading the development. Article 1-d. In the event of multiple countries wishing to endeavour to discover possible new plant life in a single nation all countries involved have the right to a share in the discovery given that part of the team that discovered said plant is of that nationality. |
