They don't have a clue.....

After the Brisbane floods in 1974, there was much posturing and promises to make sure such an event could "never happen again"

Well it took 37 years...and not I'm sure high speed internet access/NBN is the top priority for the property and business owners who are now literally going under....

Perhaps a review of National priorities is in order?

Seems rather odd to me this does not seem to be happening given the current sad events and lessons well learnt elsewhere...

"By the year 1879, the need for improvement of the Mississippi River had become widely recognized. The necessity for coordination of engineering operations through a centralized organization had finally been accepted"
