1 INTRODUCTION

Welcome to the 4th edition of the ABS' Science and Technology Statistics Update.

Australian policy makers and other industry analysts increasingly see science and technology as a very important driver of economic progress. It is therefore crucial to them to have access to a reliable set of science and technology statistics. The purpose of the Update is to let you know about the range of science and technology statistics which are produced by the ABS and to provide you with information on statistical developments and data releases.

We hope you find the Update useful and would appreciate any feedback you have to offer. Please send any comments to clem.tozer@abs.gov.au or phone (02) 6252 6709.
