Yep... their catch cry is" under resourced" NO it's a case of terrible organisation..... The hospital system suffered from... they were baining for more resources and all they succeeded to do was build a huge middle management beurocracy that didn't benefit patient ratios .... This government has the opinion that growing the government ranks is a new growth industry...... 36,000 NEW FEDERAL PUBLIC SERVANTS to be brought on line at an added cost of 6 billion PER ANNUM out of the taxpayer purse.... PLUS ALL BENEFITS... THIS IS A 10% INCREASE JUST INN THIS LEVEL OF GOVERNMENT.

Giles MASSIVE FAILURE.

They need more people sitting in rooms, talking about nothing important, drinking coffee while receiving high salaries.

Incompetence, lack of staff is capital B💩

what the hell is Minister Watt doing apart from distracting people answering questions and distracting Senator Paterson.....also mobile phone reading is ridiculous....sit still be somewhat professional to allow people to concentrate on their answers and questions.... go to the toilet or something

Watt is Albanese's new top mean girl. Gallagher hiding as the Higgins Wilkinson plot to attack senator Reynolds in parliament should come to court scrutiny soon.

This is what an almost $ 1 million salary gets you. We have way to many overpaid, underwhelming public servants, draining the tax payer money pool

I can’t listen to this BS.

She is bloody hopeless

Shes the Um queen.😂😂😂 All of you start showing some professionalism its disgusting we have to pay such ridiculously high salaries for this.

Thank you! I just wrote about this, and felt maybe I was being harsh. But I had to pause the video, as she’s so difficult to listen to. I can only take her in small doses. 🤣 Kudos to James for patiently sitting through her responses.

Stephanie Foster PSM . . . Pathaligical Systematic Mis-management !

The problem with Canberra bureaucrats appears to be that they are so petrified of offending their political masters, that it takes ages for them to internalise and then articulate their responses. Their desperate attempts at self-preservation just come across as incompetence. Just the price one has to pay I guess for being overpaid and under appreciated by long-suffering taxpayers.

Don’t forget, she has the additional, responsibility for pulling data and scribbling notes about her findings. Apparently we’re not paying her enough to compile and present the data. Bear in mind, this was information on notice. Shouldn’t she have submitted the information by now, so that ministers could prepare their questions?

So she’s saying that notifying AFTER the event is still notifying? 🤦‍♀️ ….. stop the dribble. What is the cut off time to determine “not notified”? Days, weeks, months, YEARS?!!!!

Great job, Senator ❤

It's nice to see Murray Watt so genuinely interested in proceedings, playing with his phone,adjusting his tie fiddling with his ring.

🙉Gosshh, not the ummmm, urrrrr's again !!

Hers is a unique contract: she gets a dollar for every “umm” she says per annum.

Is she trying to suggest other departments get resource increases in line with workload increases? That's hilarious!!

One would expect these public servants to know that the use of 'Um' and 'Arr' should have disappeared after high school debates. Why can't they shoot straight with their answers? Did she say 'what I can't know'? Does my head in. Translation please.

Increasing case load....not enough resources...😅

We need RPLs on there performance to perform and reflected in the salaries

Its not my fault........

This was about labor’s incompetence but she went back to 2015. Wow she will not make the Labor party accountable

She is pulling excuses out of the air. Not accepting any responsibility whatsoever. Needs sacking

What a joke! This woman must have majored in posh accents. Empty drum . Um um um um um could not listen. You deserve a pay rise senator Patterson for being able to stomach such dribble.

9:31 its not much of a point "we dealt with all cases that required escalation". Well I'm sure that they were needing escalation because they were being processed in a timely fashion, right?

Murray Watt resembles Mr Toad from the Wind and the Willows😂

Murray Watt is looking for his next answer

Not enough staff? or incompetent staff? From senior to lower ranks! A clean out of this section seems urgently required.

These people are supposed to assist our government leaders ...who aren't here to serve Australian people or Australia their disgraceful curd n way im hearing.....

Expensive wine has turned their minds into mush. Um um so um are we um

Yet another Labor chair with vocal fry. As for the public servant being questioned …, she has a problem having to “pull data”, yet the provision of information its part of her job. Then, she takes notes about the data, rather than writing up a report, or compiling the data in a useful format and presenting it to the committee. If this were the real world,it would be regarded as incompetent. Our public service is ridiculously large, and I wonder if we might employ some more dynamic, energised people, thereby requiring fewer of them? (Though I have no doubt that a great many are excellent, and have seen evidence of such in Senate Estimates). But I can’t imagine going to a meeting where I’m required to answer questions and convey information, and communicating in this appalling manner, with the constant “umm”ing and lip-smacking. I don’t mean to sound harsh, but these people are on enormous tax-payer funded salaries. I will say, however, that her blazer looks lovely.

James it’s her fault

​@jamesyoung1012 www.aph.gov.au/Senators_and_Members/Parliamentarian?MPID=245759 Senator Murray Watt (Labor). He has an interesting background, mainly Agriculture and recently National Emergencies and Disaster Management. He frequently appears at Senate Estimates on behalf of other Ministers for their portfolios, he seems knowledgeable on a broad range of issues and portfolios. But his manner can be abrasive and unappealing. His competence as Immigration Minister?? I don't know, I tend to give people the benefit of the doubt (with mixed results). I do not think Giles has been disastrous.

@@jamesyoung1012 Senator Murray Watt (Labor). He has an extensive background in Agriculture, more recently National Emergencies and Disaster Management. He often appears at Senate Estimates on behalf of other Ministers so he has a broad knowledge base. Unfortunately his manner can be abrasive, at times obstinate. Watt as Immigration Minister? Well, I think the portfolio would become a lot 'louder' and there'd be media bites every other day. In National Emergencies and Disaster Management the portfolios made great progress and continues to lead that space very well, he had a great team though with some very impressive people. I'm not sure how he'd go as Immigration Minister but Giles hasn't managed that portfolio successfully or well. As Home Affairs? No doubt in a few years he'd make a robust Home Affairs Minister but it's a challenging portfolio especially at the moment. He's better to go for Immigration and sit in an adjunct portfolio for a few years. Things are all kinds of dicey right now.

Hum and there Educate it’s just painful to watch and listen to, good job James 🇦🇺🇦🇺

How does it take 3 years to make a decision?

I bet if you move the released criminals into the politicians neighbourhood they would act without um um um um um um delay.

Hi Senator A real mixed bag. 😅 One referring to Peter Dutton, as always, which looks applicable and one trying to answer the question with actual knowledge. They are getting a little bit better at bringing so-called data back up, but as always, you're ahead of the game. You're a good teacher. 😅

Foster ummm ummmm ahhhhh ahhhh um ah….ummm and so ummm over that same period ummmm ahhhh
