While I'm all for red tape cost cutting and a squeeze on Defence public service spending, I'd hate for this to be another costly exercise to confirm whats going on is 'about right'. Perhaps an 'although the previous government has put us in a tight spot, we're going to pioneer ahead with the same policy... now just delayed 6 months' type spin (bit like the stuper hornet?).
Voice - I think the home assistance scheme (thread drifting) is actually seen as some what a cost saving measure - most members will be receiving less actual $'s support than what they would have otherwise received through rental assistance - not to mention that reduced workload on those poor people at DHA - surely some investigation could be done into what occurs behind those doors?
