Formation of Crown research institutes

On July 1, 1992, 10 Crown research institutes were formed – the most radical reorganisation of government science in New Zealand’s history. The aim was to group scientists into institutes with separate research aims and subject areas. They also provided for commercial funding of research. This sound file and newspaper clipping describe aspects of the change in research organisation.
