Foundation for Research, Science and Technology Act 1990

Statement of Science Priorities for the 1993/94 to 1997/98

To the Chairman of The Foundation for Research, Science and Technology, P.O. Box 12–240, Wellington.

Dear Professor Axford

I am required under the Foundation for Research, Science and Technology Act 1990 to “... advise the foundation of the priorities that the foundation shall adhere to in carrying out its functions...” in the allocation of funds for the production of public good science outputs.

I am conveying this advice to you by means of this letter and Annexes A to H.

I note this statement is the first to present long-term priorities, and is to provide a basis for the allocation of the Public Good Science Fund (PGSF) for the financial years 1993–94 through to 1997–98. While the statement covers this entire period, it may be supplemented or modified if circumstances warrant, and is intended to be comprehensively reviewed in approximately 3 years time.

Strategic Goals for New Zealand Science

The Government believes that decisions on the funding of public good science need to be made in the context of clearly defined strategic goals. These goals need to express the Government’s position on the overall strategic direction for research, science and technology, future funding levels, partnership with the private sector, the balance of research and development effort, the necessity for a concentration of resources and the need to add value. The foundation is thus to apply the strategic goals set out in Annex A in making funding allocations from the Public Good Science Fund.

Allocation of Funds

That part of the PGSF allocated by the foundation (i.e. excluding non-specific output funding) has been divided into 15 groupings containing combinations of 39 of the 40 output classes of the PGSF (output class 37: Health excluded).

Annex B lists the 15 groupings and shows the funding targets for each grouping and for outputs within each grouping where these are specified, for the 1997–98 financial year. In particular for the Infrastructure (output classes 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24) and Protection and Assessment of the Earth (output classes 29, 30, 31, 32 33) groupings, the funding levels as identified in Annex B for each output class, should be used as targets.

The foundation is to manage the allocation of funding so that these targets can be achieved.

Discretion in the Transition over the Five Year Period

The foundation will be allowed some discretion in the allocation of funding to output classes and groupings of output classes within the 5 year period, i.e. on an annual basis. However, the foundation is to develop an overall funding transition strategy and to advise me of the strategy by September 1993. Further details are contained in Annex D.

Development of Science Area Research Strategies

The foundation is to develop science area research strategies as a primary means of managing the allocation of funding over the
