Mr President, I ask a further supplementary question. I again refer Senator Brandis to Mr Shepherd's column, which outlines the unequivocal benefits of building our future submarines right here in Australia.

Minister, when will this government heed the advice of its own experts and keep its promise to build 12 submarines in Adelaide?
