Purpose: 
Talks about how to identify and make good decisions about research projects to fund (and appropriate levels of funding) including monitoring research activities, engaging and collaborating with others (other research funders, businesses, public sector research institutions); and how to do all of this with appropriate rigor and transparency. Speaks specifically toward the creation of a new entity, Research UK, that RCUK (Research Councils UK) should evolve into.
