My question is to the Prime Minister. I refer to the Prime Minister's previous answer and I refer him to the member for Warringah's comments reported in The Australian today where he said that he was 'flabbergasted' at the decision to see these submarines delayed. The member for Warringah goes on to say we need the decision 'swiftly' made so we can 'get the new subs from the middle of the next decade.' He goes on to say that the Collins class have 'a fragile capability'. Prime Minister, is the member for Warringah wrong?
