Senator, you refer to the government's decision to replace HMAS Success. We have to replace HMAS Success with a vessel acquired from overseas because of the urgency of the need, because on your watch no tender was let to an Australian naval shipyard at the time it needed to be so that Success could have been replaced before the end of its operational life by an Australian build.
