I want to see more transparency around this process.

It is clear that governments need to do more to make the health and wellbeing of our defence personnel an active and long-term priority, not just during their service, but also when they transition to civilian life and beyond.

They aren’t opportunists; they’re organised criminal groups that make use of any and all technologies to steal money from Australians at every age, from every demographic. It is despicable stuff.

We are at a moment in our democracy that the people of Australia have been waiting a long time for—that is, to take responsibility for our actions.

With one voice, we recognise that we must do better—that we must meet the standards the public holds us to and that we hold ourselves to.

I would argue that my amendments will help fix the holes in the government’s current plan, and I urge the government to support my amendments.

The public deserves assurance that billions of dollars of their money is being spent responsibly and with integrity, to prevent any pork barrelling occurring under this government, or indeed future governments.
