A Defence Policy for Australian Industry: Are We There Yet?

Author: Robert Wylie

Volume 3, Number 2 (June 2007), pp. 53-71.

Abstract

In March 2007, the Minister for Defence released his Defence and Industry Policy Statement, the tenth iteration of Australian defence industry policy in the last twenty years.  This article draws on comparable UK and US initiatives in analysing the Australian Government’s new defence industry policy in terms of the ends it seeks to achieve, the ways it proposes to achieve those ends, and the resources it allocates to the task.
