Mr President, I have a supplementary question. Given that, in the 2009 white paper, the Labor government promised to increase defence spending by three per cent per year in real terms, Minister, why do we have a situation where over 5,000 jobs in the defence industry manufacturing sector have been lost, including in my state of South Australia?
