Mr President, I ask a supplementary question. I refer the minister to the same article and, again, I quote the unnamed soldier, who said:

I am an Australian Soldier and, for the first time in eleven years, I am thoroughly disgusted to be one.

Minister, why do ADF personnel have to fight this government for fair pay and conditions?
