Mr ROBERT (Fadden) (09:26): on indulgence—Considering the 10 C-27Js are available because of a cancellation and, therefore, available at a very good price and option, may I commend the minister for a quick and sound decision. It is a very good capability. The loss of the Caribou was quite a loss in terms of short take-off and landing. The C-27J will add significant capability to our arsenal. So while, in the last few days, Minister, there has been a barrage of marginal decisions, may I say, Sir, this is a very good one.

The DEPUTY SPEAKER ( Ms AE Burke ): No more indulgence for people talking about defence is going to be granted.
