Funny coincidence department; exactly my thoughts when Ged first posted. I can't get hold of Hansard from estimates yet, but there were some pointed questions raised about the 'mob handed' approach and the Barrier fiasco. Anyway – if you can spare the time start back at the 'disillusioned' Polar attack and work through to Barrier, then join the dots.
