Committee on Defence and National Security
National Maritime Security Strategy: Department of Defence
2:00 am
Dr. Margaret Stanley:
No, you have given me a great opportunity and the many questions posed have covered everything I was hoping to be able to say today. Overall, I would emphasise again that the work we are doing will hopefully mark the beginning of a process to improve our maritime security and will provide a roadmap to having better national and international co-ordination. By enhancing our maritime domain awareness and protecting our critical undersea infrastructure, we will have an improved situation overall, which will help to protect the national security of our island.
