Question

It could be argued that?Australia, and my home state of South Australia, is facing significant and critical shortages when it comes to the Osborne?Naval Shipyard.?This is an issue going back to 2024.?A lack of the required nuclear professionals, which estimates put at 9,500,?could be a significant concern.?Would you argue that this lack of professionals will expose Australia?and make us further reliant on the US and the UK??
