Note: The bureaucratic keywords and abbreviations are: informed, on-going, prepare, SCC (and its sub-committees) and RIS.
Yes, some good use of bureaucratic wankery. I was very surprised and somewhat dissapointed not to hear the words 'best practise', robust, sustainability, overarching or underpinning thrown in there to add some flavor to the **** taste!
So did they ATFQ(s)?
C'mon now, please, why would they do that, that would be breaking the rules of government 101 - honesty!
So lets disect the CASA answers shall we;
Answer:
1) CASA has kept the industry informed of progress with Part 91 on an on-going basis.
In addition to postings on the CASA website, updates are given
regularly at meetings of the Standards Consultative Committee and its sub-committees. Pilots and operators will be given
sufficient time to prepare for the new regulations before they enter into force. Training and education publications will be developed and
briefings given to the industry to prepare them for the introduction of the
regulations.
What a load of pooh. Standards Consultative Committee, sub-committee's, who gives a rats arse. Pen pushing nimrods being informed, but forget industry where it really counts! And how about 'will be given' and 'will be developed'? They meant to say 'we have done f#ck all about it up til now'.
2) CASA does not itemise costs for individual parts or development of individual pieces of legislation.
Gee, what a surprise. That wouldn't make sense now would it, to account for the specific taxpayer funds spent on an individual project or specific item or agenda. They don't itemise it because the taxpayer would revolt if they saw how much of their money is pissed away on frivolous activities, studies and consultants for nil result.
3) In accordance with established procedure, the estimated cost to implement the Part 91 changes will be made public in a Regulation Impact Statement
Please somebody get me a sick bag now. Impact statement? Another worthless piece of paper containing glossy statements, bureaucratic drivel and steaming piles of brown matter. The legal ghouls and masters of trickery always turn this piece of paper into a shining thesis of excellency! Well, to those who are mushrooms anyway. The rest of us have seen decades of this crap.
