Folks,
Nothing of real significance CAN change until serious surgery on the Act, as explained, so many times, by Creampuff and others.

That as well as a complete new approach to regulations, getting rid of the bastard child of the Albanese/McCormick era, Part 61, and all its siblings about to hit you like an out of control train. As AMROBA continues to point out (and CASA does nothing) the regulatory regimen in significant principle, is far removed even from the Act. And --- ICAO.

As for the paperwork, again give thanks to the Labor era. I have just been to Medicare for some refunds. Under the "new" system, two pieces of paper about the size of a small supermarket docket, printed on the desk of each clerk, have been replaced by TEN (10, 9+1) A4 pages on a remote printer -- must all be a health measure, to make sure clerks don't sit for too long.

Perhaps the rational is that we use 100% recycled paper, so the more paper we used, the better for the environment we are doubtless being. Given the CASA examples, this must be a "whole of Government" policy??

The whole "new" CASA web site, again thanks to the Albanese era, is a disgrace, "slow" doesn't cover it, and access to vast amounts of archival material is now denied -- we would not want easy access to any evidence, would we.

Tootle pip!!
