PM’s Budget emphasis on research, science and technology is empowering
The following comments are from the Royal Society of New Zealand’s President, Dr Garth Carnaby, about the Prime Minister’s announcement today on the research, science and technology component in next week’s Budget:
“I see this announcement as hugely empowering for scientists as they are keen to contribute to the New Zealand economy.
“The direction is particularly exciting because of the engagement between science and business which is clearly signalled as commanding significant new government funding in the Budget.
“It is also really pleasing to see the Prime Minister taking personal ownership of the importance of science’s place in industry.”
