鈥淭he roadmap encourages long-term, strategic thinking to maximise the contribution of Australia鈥檚 research and innovation system to social, environmental and economic outcomes.鈥
鈥淲e are pleased to see the acknowledgement of the humanities, arts and social sciences as equal and essential contributors to these very outcomes.鈥
鈥淲e know that every dollar invested into university research returns $5 to the economy, so we are pleased to see the recognition of stable, long-term funding as instrumental to our research system鈥檚 success.鈥
鈥淐arefully planned investment into Australian research drives new breakthroughs, delivers enormous benefits to our society, and cements Australia鈥檚 place in the global exchange of knowledge and ideas.鈥
鈥淲e look forward to the release of the government鈥檚 detailed response to the roadmap.鈥
