Senator IAN MACDONALD (Queensland) (14:01): Mr President, I ask a supplementary question. I thank the minister for his assurance that the rising sun badge will continue. Is the minister aware of reports that soldiers from the Australian Army Reserve units have reported that they are not being given live or blank rounds for training exercises, and instead are shouting 'bang bang' to simulate weapons discharges? Is it true that the Army Reserve training days are being cut from 100 to 21 per member per financial year to ensure that available ammunition will actually meet operational needs?
