Foundation for Research, Science and Technology
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Foundation for Research, Science and Technology
established by the Foundation for Research, Science, and Technology Act 1990.[1]
Its stated mission was "investing for results from research, science and
technology to deliver greater prosperity, security and opportunities to all
New Zealanders".[2]
In 2011 the Foundation for Research, Science and Technology was
merged with the Ministry of Research, Science and Technology (MoRST)to
create the new Ministry of Science and Innovation (MSI), which took over
the policy and investment functions of both agencies.[3]
MSI became fully operational on 1 February 2011, at which point MoRST
and the Foundation for Research, Science and Technology were disestablished.[citation needed]
