1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:02,800 Speaker 1: A question for you. Is it gaul? Is it a cheek? 2 00:00:02,920 --> 00:00:05,960 Speaker 1: Is it comedic? The White Tangy Tribunal has been reviewed 3 00:00:06,000 --> 00:00:08,119 Speaker 1: and the reviewer is out. It recommends it needs more 4 00:00:08,119 --> 00:00:11,719 Speaker 1: people and more money. It is, says the review strained. 5 00:00:12,160 --> 00:00:14,360 Speaker 1: They are, of course technically corrected. Is straining. The White 6 00:00:14,360 --> 00:00:17,840 Speaker 1: Tangy Tribunal is busy. It is busy with urgent and 7 00:00:17,880 --> 00:00:20,040 Speaker 1: we use that word loosely, with any number of gripes 8 00:00:20,040 --> 00:00:22,680 Speaker 1: and grievances around the general state and status of Mury, 9 00:00:22,760 --> 00:00:25,279 Speaker 1: or more accurately, a small selection of Murray who have 10 00:00:25,280 --> 00:00:28,639 Speaker 1: seen for years, nay decades now, the Tribunal is an 11 00:00:28,640 --> 00:00:31,280 Speaker 1: almost endless source of respite in their never ending list 12 00:00:31,280 --> 00:00:35,480 Speaker 1: of grievances. This is a classic make work program. Puff 13 00:00:35,520 --> 00:00:39,320 Speaker 1: you chested out inflation, your sense of importance, of self importance, 14 00:00:39,800 --> 00:00:42,600 Speaker 1: busy yourself with the myriad of invented tasks, and then 15 00:00:42,640 --> 00:00:45,600 Speaker 1: in the review, guess what, You're overworked and underresourced. The 16 00:00:45,600 --> 00:00:48,159 Speaker 1: government is going to do something about this, apparently allegedly, 17 00:00:48,200 --> 00:00:50,360 Speaker 1: and unfortunately for people like me, they're not moving nearly 18 00:00:50,360 --> 00:00:52,440 Speaker 1: fast enough. The Tribunal, as we have said a number 19 00:00:52,440 --> 00:00:55,600 Speaker 1: of times, is well past its useful life. The idea 20 00:00:55,680 --> 00:00:58,440 Speaker 1: that it addressed historic wrongs has come and gone. Deadlines 21 00:00:58,440 --> 00:01:00,640 Speaker 1: should have been placed years ago on those wanting to 22 00:01:00,720 --> 00:01:04,440 Speaker 1: argue their case, expiry dates on applications and negotiations. All 23 00:01:04,520 --> 00:01:08,240 Speaker 1: governments have failed miserably to this point on the discipline 24 00:01:08,240 --> 00:01:11,399 Speaker 1: required in that particular area. But now it's down to 25 00:01:11,600 --> 00:01:14,160 Speaker 1: ongoing dabbling in matters of the day that carry no 26 00:01:14,240 --> 00:01:17,360 Speaker 1: weight and have a growing amount of political agitation about them. 27 00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:20,479 Speaker 1: It's simply ejected up grievance mechanism funded by the taxpayer 28 00:01:20,520 --> 00:01:23,399 Speaker 1: to supply m O to the gravy chainers for an ongoing, 29 00:01:23,400 --> 00:01:26,520 Speaker 1: if never ending list of woe. It takes a gaul 30 00:01:26,760 --> 00:01:28,800 Speaker 1: in a broke country arver to thought with cutbacks all 31 00:01:28,840 --> 00:01:31,000 Speaker 1: around you, to then go and ask for yet more resource. 32 00:01:31,040 --> 00:01:34,960 Speaker 1: But then that's the tribunalism, It political wasteful past. It's 33 00:01:35,080 --> 00:01:38,319 Speaker 1: used by a date and clearly arrogant. For more from 34 00:01:38,360 --> 00:01:41,480 Speaker 1: the Mic Asking Breakfast, listen live to news talks.
