This Report presents the results of the third such survey that CeSTII has conducted, namely the 2004/05 Survey of Inputs into Research and Experimental Development (R&D), referred to as the 2004/05 R&D Survey. The 2004/05 R&D Survey constitutes the second in the intended annual series of R&D Surveys and thus follows that of 2003/04. The indicators and data tables provided in this Report are the main subset of the S&T indicators and data tables specified for R&D surveys by the OECD. The public web site www.hsrc.ac.za/RnDSurvey hosts this Report and documents for the previous surveys in both .pdf and .xls format.
