Yes. A few pertinent points according to the CSIRO website: * In 1916, the Australian Government established the Advisory Council of Science and Industry as the first step towards a 'national laboratory'. * Several years later, a report on how to organise Australian science resulted in the establishment of the Council for Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR) in 1926. * In 1949, CSIR ceased all secret or 'classified' work for the military and was renamed CSIRO, the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation. * As an Australian Government science agency, CSIRO receives funding through the Australian Government Budget. The CSIRO, the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation, remains Australia's national science agency. See the link below for more information.
