I can continue, thank you.
I've lost my rhythm. At Defence we always have to pivot very quickly.
I think we can bring that morale back, but it has to take a serious look at the staffing practices. What is more important to the department? Is it to have staff who are stable and secure and who are valued for the work they do, or is it really about how easy it is to get somebody in, to have a buddy and offer that job to a buddy because we have a contract that we can instantly just hire them.
I think we need to have a serious look at the morale at Defence. We're basically being run by contractors, with 60% being contracted out.
