White Paper: Defending Australia in the Asia Pacific Century: Force 2030

Australian Government, Department of Defense White Paper: Defending Australia in the Asia Pacific Century: Force 2030, May 2, 2009.

  • “The global economic crisis is the most fundamental economic challenge facing this Government. At times such as these, the Government must be fiscally responsible. It would be reckless to commit substantial new resources to Defence while uncertainty surrounding the crisis remains. This new Defence White Paper explains how the Government plans to strengthen the foundations of Australia’s defence. It sets out the Government’s plans for Defence for the next few years, and how it will achieve those plans. Most importantly, it provides an indication of the level of resources that the Government is planning to invest in Defence over coming years and what the Government, on behalf of the Australian people, expects in return from Defence.”
