✨ Research Funding Criteria

5 DECEMBER 2012 NEW ZEALAND GAZETTE, No. 146 4251

Criteria for Proposals Generated by a Sandpit Process

NOTICE TO THE SCIENCE BOARD

In this notice, I:

(a) specify that the Science Board is to make funding decisions on proposals generated by a Sandpit process under section 10(3)(b) of the Research, Science, and Technology Act 2010; and

(b) set the criteria for the assessment by the Science Board of proposals generated by a Sandpit process under section 8(1) of the Research, Science, and Technology Act 2010.

GENERAL POLICY OBJECTIVE

2.1 The general policy objective of this notice is to fund research, science, and technology, and related activities that have the potential to:

(a) enhance the productivity of established industries;

(b) generate new industries for New Zealand;

(d) develop world-leading technological capabilities by supporting programmes of research, science, and technology, and related activities to develop technology able to support a range of applications, products, and services.

2.2 A Sandpit process is a process used to reach a consensus view on proposals for funding research, science, and technology, and related activities, when the amount of funding available does not justify a full contestable process. It involves bringing together expert researchers and end users for a specified period of facilitated discussions to generate one or more high-quality, collaborative, multi-disciplinary proposals to undertake research, science, and technology, or related activities that are directed towards solving defined problems, taking advantage of identified opportunities, or otherwise meeting investment objectives.

3 VISION MĀTAURANGA POLICY

The Vision Mātauranga policy aims to unlock the science and innovation potential of Māori knowledge, resources, and people for the benefit of New Zealand. It focuses on four themes:

(a) Indigenous innovation – contributing to economic growth through distinctive science and innovation;

(b) taiao/environment – achieving environmental sustainability through iwi and hapū relationships with land and sea;

(d) mātauranga – exploring indigenous knowledge and science and innovation.

SCIENCE BOARD TO MAKE DECISIONS ON PROPOSALS GENERATED BY A SANDPIT PROCESS

4.1 The Science Board will make funding decisions on proposals for funding generated by a Sandpit process.

4.2 In making funding decisions on proposals generated by a Sandpit process, the Science Board may allocate funds from any of the following research funds:

(a) Biological Industries

(b) High-Value Manufacturing and Services

As the Gazette has been published for more than 185 years, copyright status depends on the publication date of each issue:

1840–1925 (Public Domain): Issues of the New Zealand Gazette and Provincial Gazettes from this period are in the public domain, as the term of Crown copyright (100 years) has expired. Mechanical reproductions (e.g., scanned PDFs) of these public domain documents do not attract new copyright.
1926–1999 (Crown Copyright): Issues from this period remain subject to Crown copyright. Usage of these issues in this project is "Fair Dealing" for research purposes and consistent with the spirit of the open-access principles championed by NZGOAL, ie, "The default licensing position under ...
