What is the beltnroads policy?

The federal government s happy to take control of things it knows nothing about. The real pity is that it does not take control of what it is really responsible for. It has denied any responsibility for the cruise ship dropping off passengers infected with covid 19.

I read the constitution as I couldn't believe it could deny responsibility and there it ia plain as day. One of the responsibilities of the federal government is Quarantine. Another is immigration. How did the investigation into the affair miss that?

Because they CAN? How about a Federal ICAC Now? One side backs it, the other  doesn't . Not hard to work out why. Clue. It's the same mob that opposed an enquiry into banks behaviour innumerable times  for years.. Nev

I noticed this in one of the Sydney Sunday papers. Sounds like some orders for new Rolls Royces getting delivered to Deniliquin might have been cancelled.
