I'm guessing 'barrier' security management might be different to 'organic' security which might be different to terminal security etc
Thanks in advance
Government provides the standards, not the funding. Which is why many smaller regional airports cannot justify tens of millions for a new fence.
They can apply for grants etc, however the cost to install what would be essentially a secure fence, like the new perimeter fence seen on the west side at Tullamarine, is likely beyond any grant.
It appears Avalon lies in a very safe seat, ironically the Minister for Defence, so unlikely to see any cash thrown about.
