My question is to the Minister representing the Minister for Defence. With opposition growing in the US Congress to passing any legislation that allows Australia even one Virginia-class nuclear submarine because of an entrenched lack of capability in the US industry to build enough submarines for their use, what is the Albanese government's Plan B for when no subs are approved and the first pillar of AUKUS sinks?
