Read the passage below carefully and evaluate the statement that follows:

The Raw Materials Research and Development Council (RMRDC) is an agency of the Nigerian Federal Government under the supervision of the Federal Ministry of Science, Technology and Innovation. Established by Decree No. 39 of 1987, the Council formally commenced operations in Lagos in February 1988 before later relocating its corporate headquarters to Abuja. RMRDC was created with the primary mandate to support and expedite industrial development through the optimal utilization of local raw materials. The Council’s activities are funded primarily through a statutory deduction of one percent on all import duties collected by the Nigeria Customs Service, alongside special intervention allocations approved by the Federal Government for strategic research projects. Unlike manufacturing agencies, RMRDC does not produce commercial consumer goods directly; instead, it conducts feasibility studies, provides technical advisory services to indigenous entrepreneurs, and funds pilot plant projects to demonstrate the commercial viability of local raw material processing.

Statement: The Raw Materials Research and Development Council derives its main financial support from the direct sale of commercial consumer goods.

Cevap: Cevap
