I'll betcha Abbott can't change the mind-set of pollies to change the mind set of bureaucrazies to reduce red tape& regulations that..,.. a) control other people and b) keeps them in a job producing this !!!!!e.
Triply/ 3 ways !.. Local, State and Federal. What an obscene burden.
Oz/Regulatastan is "a free country"... but severely bound by bureaucaratic chains. Its Bigtime BS tru. To the detriment of the whole nation.
About free trade....
Case in point... years ago, when in AWK AOC ,we were told by an FOI that we must not fly to jobs INTERSTATE !
Que ???... because we would require a licences (plural) to operate in other states. On contacting a Dept of Transport, they just laughed and said..IF you are a passenger carrying RPT op, then you needed an INTRASTATE licence to transport pax from QLD to say, NT. I was unaware that VH was just a Qld rego !
A FOI/"expert" who didnt know his onions.!
CASA are also into prevention of free trade, with regs (illegal?) that inhibit "commerce"...and that commerce having SFA to do with aviation "safety".
When will politicians get to legislate to remove all the surplus "red tape"?
NEVER.!!!
