The problem is that, while it is still a great organisation, the CSIRO is no longer as independent and unbiased as we once imagined it to be. The pressure on it to obtain external funding has become so all-pervading that it is subconsciously forced to shade the colour of its advice towards the politically correct ideas of the day. This is particularly true, and is particularly a problem, in the case of non-industrial research (that is to say, “public good" research) for which the primary source of funding is the government itself.
Forgive us if we don't just blindly follow the advice of the CSIRO.
Give us some open debate and unbiased cost analysis.
