The Federal Opposition 1 has seized on another report that shows the government was advised to delay starting its insulation 2 program because of the risks it posed.

It outlines a number of potential problems and suggests delaying the scheme which the government scrapped 3 last week.
Still in politics, the government will release its anti-terror white paper today. The document will reveal that terrorism is now regarded as a permanent threat to Australia. It will also announce new measures to try to keep terrorists out.
