50769 (2025). Scott Willis to the Minister of Science, Innovation and Technology: Will proposed legislation to convert Crown Research Institutes into Public Research Organisations maintain that the Organisations are not expected to maximise profit?

Hon Dr Shane Reti: The reforms to the science, innovation and technology system are intended to maximise the value of public investment for New Zealand’s economy and people. Public Research Organisations will be expected to be financially responsible, viable, and resilient and use resources efficiently.
