Defence Procurement
Tony Abbott Warringah, Liberal Party, Prime Minister

I said that there would be a competitive evaluation process. That is precisely the process that members opposite put in place for major defence procurement exercises themselves—a competitive evaluation process. It really does come a bit rich for this opposition to ask questions about the submarine procurement process when they procrastinated for fully six years. For six years they sat on their hands while the defence of Australia suffered; that is what they did. We all know that they cut billions and billions of dollars out of defence procurement.
