The Innovation and Science Policy Report highlights new developments in Australian innovation, science and research policy, and provides a regular update on progress against ongoing policy priorities across government.
As part of the agenda, the government announced Innovation and Science Australia (ISA), a new, independent statutory body with a mandate to provide strategic whole-of-government advice to the government on all science, research and innovation matters. ISA will replace and redefine the functions of Innovation Australia, and the government will introduce legislation to establish ISA later this year.
While the report will continue to focus on new developments and substantive actions within the Industry portfolio, reports on developments by key Australian stakeholders, and relevant international initiatives and reports, it has been broadened to encompass innovation, science and research policy, aligning it to the agenda and ISA’s future mandate.
