Is it possible that memory from a donor, no matter how small is transferred to its clone? Is there any scientific paper on the subject out there?

Memories are in the pathways of the brain.

A clone's relationship with its donor is just the DNA in a nucleus from a single cell. That nucleus is placed into an egg.

So memory is not transferred to a clone.

Yes, in all likelihood, a cloned human being would acquire the memories, personality, and consciousness of its genomic donor. There are a number of very good reasons to believe that this would happen.
1. We do not know the exact minute mechanisms of memory development and storage in the brain, as we don't know for sure just what consciousness is.
2. There appears to be a quantum mechanic effect to memory and consciousness that is only now beginning to be understood.
3. Memory and consciousness may incorporate a quantum holographic form that involves the microtubules of cells. There is something called quantum entanglement that may incorporate memory and consciousness into a holographic form.

4. The embryogenesis between a true human clone is different from that of mere human twins. The transfered genomic DNA from the donor is a fully differentiated nuclei that may retain holographic components and details of the nuclei donor's memories and consciousness. A true cloned nuclei does not get dedifferentiated all the way back to the state of fertilization, but is reprogramed back to a condition more similar to an embryonic stem cell, thus, its holographic components may be still intact. Not so with fertilization and twin development, completely different embryogenesis.

5. At the very least, there would be strong genetic tendencies shared between a true human clone and that of their genomic donor.
6. Twin studies have shown great commonalities between human twins even when separated at birth and raised by different parents in entirely different environments. If we see that in mere human twins, what can we expect to occur between a true human clone and their genomic donor? The very same individual, in my opinion.

But then, the government already knows this to be true. Why else would they push so hard to have this technology ban world wide?

As a child has not the memory of it's parents, a clone will not have the memory from the original donor.
