Summary
A canonical procedure is described which associates to each infinite information collecting situation a related information collecting situation with finite state and action spaces, in such a way that the two corresponding IC-games are near to each other. Compensations for informants are then shown to be also near to each other in the two IC-situations, provided that they are based on continuous compensation rules.
