University of Derby NHS Trust	FY2023	£17k	CHK/ AMRC/ Mason Le Page for Koteva (Note: Note 13 lists this under CHK/AMRC/Mason Le Page, but text links CHK to ICR. However, Note 13 breakdown shows specific amounts. Let's look at Note 13 carefully. The note lists 'CHK/ AMRC/ Mason Le Page for Koteva' with income 38,076 and expenditure (37,500). Wait, the table in Note 13 is complex. Let's re-read Note 13 'Restricted Funds'. It lists specific funds. The 'Balance 31 May 2023' column shows the remaining balance. The 'Expenditure' column shows what was spent. The 'Income' column shows what was received. The question asks for grants PAID OUT. The expenditure column represents the grants paid/charged to the fund. Let's extract the expenditure amounts for the named research funds.

Note 13 lists 'Beaumont/ Terradace/ AMRC for Patin' with expenditure 22,725? No, let's look at the rows in Note 13 again. The rows are: 'CHK/ AMRC/ Mason Le Page for Koteva', 'AMRC/ Swire Pioneers of Discovery for Fleming and Melake', 'AMRC for Patin', 'Beaumont/Terradace for Marsh', 'AMRC for Lin', 'AMRC for Cicero/Sala', 'AMRC for Freckleton', 'AMRC for Chan', 'Inequalities project', 'University of Southampton for Lola internship', 'Mercers Livery', 'Pennycress Trust'. The columns are Balance 1 June, Transfers, Income, Expenditure, Balance 31 May. The 'Expenditure' column is the grants paid. Let's map them.
