Defence funding will remain steady next year at about $25 billion. The government will spend $1 million for better protection Australian troops in Afghanistan. The taxpayers will spend $44 million over two years to keep troops in East Timor. Also, hundreds of million of dollars will be saved by deferring expenditure on big ticket items. More than $320 million will be spent over four years to improve base security.
My personal reflection
I think that defence found has to be steady. It seems that government spends a lot of money on all this things. However it has to be good founded because that is a vital part of our country.

Good summary and reflection - this is more political issue than legal but it is good information.
