We aspirationally want to spend 2% of our GDP. The figure that the government has said is $12 billion, not all of it's new money. We still haven't actually defined what our joint operating model looks like. By that I mean how will we fight and win wars? There's a lot of definition around that and some of the technology is replaced rapidly so if you look at intelligence capabilities and collection capabilities in the data information age these things are not like ships that are replaced every 20 or 30 years so funding it is going to be a real challenge and a lot of our acquisition policy that sits in many government departments is still tied down by very dated and slow bureaucratic process. The other thing I'd say, Mike, is defence is not the only organisation that defends our national interest. There is clear opportunity here for the Director of our National Security Advisor and his deputy to bring the National Security Board together and ask deeper questions of the system.
