hence the difference between 'security' and 'defence'
it's been my belief for a long time that we need a 'security' department far more than a 'defence' department
and when we have something which we speak of as
National security
PM&C provides high quality policy advice and support to the Prime Minister and Cabinet on national security issues.
but - look what it thinks is 'national security' ------------------
to me - it's straight from the department of NFI
This includes through the coordination of government activities, policy development, and program delivery support relating to:
- Border Security
- Counter Foreign Interference
- Counter Terrorism
- Critical Infrastructure
- Cyber Security
- Defence Capability
- Defence Industry
- Law Enforcement
- Intelligence Policy
- Irregular Migration
- Strategic Policy.
Actual security comes from a whole range of things that develop one's nation - right from having a housed, fed, healthy, educated populace - to things like foreign aid, foreign investment etc etc.
look at that list above -------------- it's almost all about keeping people out and threats
not a zot about actually building a secure nation

I don't think Canberra would know security if they fell into a bucket of it
