We publish corporate plans and annual reports in line with the Public Governance, Performance and Accountability Act 2013. Our corporate plan sets our direction and objectives, while our annual report shows how we have performed in achieving our objectives.
NHMRC’s corporate plan presents our national strategy for health and medical research aligned with our 3 strategic purposes of investment, translation and integrity. It includes strategic priorities and health priorities and outlines our planned key activities over the next 4 years. It also describes the operating context in which we work and our performance criteria and targets for that period.
Our annual reports outline the work NHMRC has achieved each financial year as we deliver services and programs. The reports contain information on NHMRC administration and performance, and a record of our activities for the reporting period.
We have other corporate documents dating back to 1938, when NHMRC first presented a report to Parliament under the Medical Research Endowment Act 1937 (legislation which has since been repealed). Further information is provided below.
