The fourth Annual Report on the ten-year Science and Innovation Investment Framework is now available on the right.
In 2004 the Government published the ten-year Science and Innovation Investment Framework, setting out a long-term vision for UK science and innovation, together with ambitions for public and private investment in R&D to reach 2.5 per cent of GDP by 2014. The ten-year framework followed on from the earlier 2002 Investing in Innovation strategy and the Excellence and Opportunity white paper published in 2000. The first three Annual Reports are available on the right.

Alongside the Science and Innovation Investment Framework the Government made a commitment to report annually on progress against a relevant set of indicators. DIUS have developed a reporting framework and set of indicators to assess the health of the science and innovation system, the system that delivers economic impacts. The latest assessment is contained in the Economic impacts of investment in research and innovation report, which replaces the former "Progress Against Indicators" publication. A document outlining the development of the economic impact reporting framework is available on the right.
