Blockla – #109. Have a ceegar mate.
This whole mess deserves to be laid firmly at the Ministers door, he runs these departments and should be able to answer questions, preferably during question time.
I would like to know how much money ASA has made, how much has been wasted, how much has been spent on lunches and 'essential spousal travel' etc., how much on bonuses paid against failed projects, how much on advertising spin and self aggrandisement, just for starters.
Then I would like to know why our first class ATC people are struggling with half arsed systems, short of staff, short of training personnel, short of chairs and can't get an expensive simulator working.
It cannot be that ASA is short of money – the proceeds of this cynical, massive public rip off go where ?. Not to improved systems, not to more coal face crew, not to training, not even a few new chairs.
And Australia decries sweatshops in the third world.
Arrghh - Steam off.
