Revised Request to CML

In December 2016, Dr. Hugo Cardoso filed a revised request to the Municipality of Lisbon (Câmara Municipal de Lisboa - CML). Although the initial request and approval had not been revoked, the request was reformulated taking into consideration the petition and the controversy generated around the project. A PDF version of it can be found within the file below.

The revised request expanded on the earlier materials and provided further details about the the five phases of a future agreement between the Municipality of Lisbon (CML) and Simon Fraser University (SFU):

• First phase: Request sent to CML and subsequent approval in 2016;
• Second phase: Written agreement between CML and SFU outlining the duties and responsabilities of both parties regarding the project and the future collection;
• Third phase: Preparation of the remains and subsequent transport from municipal cemeteries in Lisbon to SFU;
• Fourth phase: Curation of human remains at SFU, and outreach events aimed for a Portuguese audience covering different aspects of the project;
• Fifth phase: Permanent return of the remains to Lisbon.
