Is CSIRO part of the Australian Government?

Yes. A few pertinent points according to the CSIRO website: * In 1916, the Australian Government established the Advisory Council of Science and Industry as the first step towards a 'national laboratory'. * Several years later, a report on how to organise Australian science resulted in the establishment of the Council for Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR) in 1926. * In 1949, CSIR ceased all secret or 'classified' work for the military and was renamed CSIRO, the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation. * As an Australian Government science agency, CSIRO receives funding through the Australian Government Budget. The CSIRO, the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation, remains Australia's national science agency. See the link below for more information.

Why do the two Australian territories have reduced levels of government?

The territories of Australia are established by the Commonwealth government, and are therefore subject to Commonwealth laws. The Commonwealth may deign to give them powers to establish laws in some areas, but essentially this is at the discretion of the Commonwealth government. The territories are really just extensions of the Commonwealth government and its laws. When the six colonies federated as states, their powers were defined by the Constitution. The territories were established a decade after federation, and although there is provision for them to become states at a later time, until that happens they are still subject only to Commonwealth law.
