OUTCOME 1 — CONTRIBUTION OF OUTPUTS

AIMS will achieve the outcome by conducting scientific and technological R&D, providing science facilities and services, and facilitating the application or utilisation of the results of research. The outcome supports Government policy and the Innovation Action Plan (Backing Australia’s Ability, January 2001) and is derived from the legislated functions of the Institute (Australian Institute of Marine Science Act 1972, section 9).

Table 2.2, on the following page, shows the performance information that AIMS will use to assess the level of its contribution to its outcome.
