ENSURING THE ADVANCEMENT OF METROLOGY IN AREAS SUPPORTING SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT THROUGH IMPROVEMENTS IN THE BUDGET ALLOCATION PROCESS

H.L. Amos, R.J. Gunn, M. Buxton
Abstract:
Metrology is developing as a field, and in the United Kingdom (UK) this requires development of the budget allocation process to ensure funding is provided to all areas. A research project is being undertaken within the UK National Measurement System aimed at creating a more balanced approach to ensure funding is granted at the appropriate level in areas of metrology for which the justification is non-economic.
