The Federal Government has continually spruiked its aim to become a world leader in digital transformation, but the Opposition has pointed to this project as being just one example among many of serious failures in administration.


Administration?  What about Martin Luther King?

Discuss.

Civil rights.  You're quite a comedian in some ways, aren't you?  Ever been paid for it?

So Biometric was slow being delivered. Doesn't make it a bad idea.
So you have a DNA database. How do you check, for instance, airline passengers? Do you require a DNA sample from everyone before boarding your plane? How long would it take to do a DNA test on 300 passengers and get the results back? It is not like in the crime shows. Now multiply it by the number of flights per day.
