Bureau of Meteorology boss reveals website rebuild 'approved and funded' by Turnbull government

Turnbull approved a 4.1 million dollar upgrade ( still too much) to the BOM website.

Under Murray Watts it ballooned out to 96 million but it isn’t his fault because he didn’t know anything about it.

I ask Albo what is the point of having a minister for the BOM if they don’t have any idea what goes on there?

P.s Anika Wello…… Optus has collapsed again. You heard it from me first!

I support the No Bonk Ban in Federal Government because I believe anything we can do to stop our current politicians from breeding is best for the future of our nation.

no he didn't . It was never about just the web site. Did you even read the link?

Quote:

But the bureau's chief executive Stuart Minchin, who has been in the role for two weeks, said the redesign was just one part of a larger end-to-end rebuild of the technology underpinning the website, which was prompted by a cyber attack in 2015 that threatened to "take down the whole system".

"I totally understand the miscommunication that led to this perception in the public, but I want to make it clear that it was always going to cost a lot more than $4 million," he told the ABC.

"It was originally scoped back in 2017 and funded and approved by Cabinet at that time.

"Overall, the program was always intended to be in the order of $80 million."
