Obviously, we would all prefer to be dealing with a different set of circumstances. I apologise if I go over ground that members have already covered. I was trying to run two events while watching this on my phone, but it is what it is. We do not need me to repeat how this was a disaster and chaos and that no one wants to see it happen again. It was even a disaster for the State from an international point of view.

I wish to discuss the 37 people, including the 20 who did not show up, and the issue with rostering and a lack of certification. Mr. Philips stated that the process had been changed. Did the issue never arise previously? Was the number of people who did not show up an aberration?
