摘要:
A recent government proposal to drastically change the administrative arrangements for the Bureau of Mineral Resources, Geology and Geophysics (BMR) has caused turmoil within the Australian geoscientific community. BMR was established in 1946 to help identify and promote the development of Australia's oil and mineral resources. Currently, the organization is part of the Department of Primary Industries and Energy (DPIE).The government's proposal was that the resource assessment functions of BMR remain with DPIE and that the remainder of BMR be assimilated into the Commonwealth, Scientific and Industrial Research Organization (CSIRO). CSIRO is the largest scientific wing of government and undertakes industryoriented research in the national interest. The government proposed that BMR could be dismembered and fitted into existing CSIRO groups or possibly kept intact within CSIRO.
