Abstract

This paper outlines some recent and planned developments in CSIRO which are all aimed, directly and indirectly, at 'creating wealth for Australia through science and technology'.

Since I joined CSIRO in March of this year, we have undertaken an assessment of national priorities for research, as a basis for determining the Organisation's own research priorities and resource allocation. CSIRO has a broad mandate, as indicated by its Ministerial Guidelines, which state that its "main task will be the conduct of strategic and applied research in support of national economic, social and environmental objectives". CSIRO conducts research in a wide variety of areas, as indicated by its organisational structure of the following six Institutes:

Animal Production and Processing;
Industrial Technologies;
Information Science and Engineering;
Minerals, Energy and Construction;
Natural Resources and Environment; and
Plant Production and Processing.
