The Reef and Rainforest Research Centre Limited (the RRRC) was
formed in 2006 under the laws of Australia as a successor to the
Cooperative Research Centres for Reef and Rainforest (see also
About Us).
The RRRC is a non-profit public company limited by
guarantee. The RRRC is required to comply with Australian
Government financial regulations and provide an annual audit of
finances to the Australian Government for approval.
Engagement and Quality Assurance Process
The Marine and Tropical Sciences Research Facility (MTSRF) fund
was managed through a research services contract between the
Commonwealth Department of the Environment, Water, Heritage and the
Arts and the Reef and Rainforest Research Centre Limited. The RRRC
subcontracted research providers to deliver Themes 1-4 and parts of
Theme 5 of the MTSRF Research Programme.
The Governing Board of the
RRRC oversees the delivery of its contracts to the Australian
Government. Research programs and projects are monitored and
reviewed through a number of operational and steering committees as
required. These committees involve approximately experts from
industry, community, government and research organisations.
