What remains unresolved.

Which donations funded which policy projects?

General donor lists and unrestricted support do not establish who commissioned a particular report, what influence occurred, or any operational connection to a facility.

Next research step: Look for report-specific acknowledgments, grant agreements and independence policies before adding any commissioned-research relationship.
