| Following the completion of the SLS, **a new LP of 174.3 CFHT nights, called SPICE** (standing for 'SPIRou Legacy Survey - Consolidation & Enhancement') **was allocated over 4 semesters** (2022b to 2024a). SPICE focusses on a sample of late-M dwarfs, TESS candidates and pre-main-sequence (PMS) stars that were not monitored within the SLS. A final semester (2024b) was allocated to SPICE (as PI programmes on both F and C sides) to complete the ongoing observations of a few key targets. | Following the completion of the SLS, **a new LP of 174.3 CFHT nights, called SPICE** (standing for 'SPIRou Legacy Survey - Consolidation & Enhancement') **was allocated over 4 semesters** (2022b to 2024a).

| SLS and SPICE observations aim at the following objectives: (i) accomplish selected large-scale community-defined scientific programs and (ii) provide the community with an extensive, homogenous, well characterized, and high quality database having the potential for a wide range of long-lasting scientific applications with a **clear Legacy dimension**. | SLS and SPICE observations aim at the following objectives: (i) accomplish selected large-scale community-defined scientific programs and (ii) provide the community with an extensive, homogenous, well characterized, and high quality database having the potential for a wide range of long-lasting scientific applications with a **clear Legacy dimension**. | ||
