Synopsis of publication

The NHMRC Act requires the NHMRC CEO to prepare and give to the Minister, not later than six months before the end of a strategic plan, a written review evaluating the CEO’s success in implementing the strategic plan.

The Report on the Operations of the NHMRC Strategic Plan 2007-2009 is a documentary record of the major activities of the NHMRC during the triennium and examines the performance of the CEO in implementing the objectives of the NHMRC Strategic Plan 2007-2009.

The report is structured against the five objectives and performance is reported against the key strategies and indicators identified in the 2007-2009 Strategic Plan.

The appendices contain additional information on Council and Committee membership during the triennium, note all publications issued by NHMRC during the reporting period and include top-level research funding data relevant to 2007-2009.

The NHMRC Strategic Plan 2007-2009 set an ambitious agenda. The strategic objectives challenged NHMRC to address major and emerging health issues, support excellence in health and medical research, ensure transparent administration of relevant regulatory frameworks and provide informed advice to governments and the Australian community.

Guided by the 2007-2009 Strategic Plan, the NHMRC has achieved much, but there is more still to do. Health and medical research will produce new prospects for better treatments and the prevention of ill health. Discovery research will drive improved clinical practice and enhanced health service delivery. The challenges we face in building a healthy Australia are universal and if the NHMRC is to continue to play a leadership role we must support networks of knowledge sharing and research capacity.
