Speaker 1
I declare open this public hearing of the joint committee of public accounts in order for the inquiry into the 2324 and '24 25 major projects reports, and I thank the witnesses for being here today. I call on representatives from the Department of Defense and the Australian National Audit Office. For the Hansard record, could you please state your name and the capacity in which you appear before the committee? But given we have quite a number of witnesses and instead of, everyone, saying your first name and a a favorite food starting with the first letter, maybe if you... When you come up to the table, just introduce yourself.
But for those at the table, if you could begin, and then we'll go to the audit office as well.
