The petitions presented today cover a wide range of subject matters. Several petitions relate to the conflict in the Middle East, including one that gathered just under 130,000 signatures. Another petition, which received more than 21,000 signatures, relates to the changes to the maximum eligible age for applicants of temporary graduate visas. Some of the other topics covered in today's petitions include a request for a royal commission into family violence and three requests for the Commonwealth prac payment scheme to include additional student cohorts.

I'm pleased that citizens and residents of Australia continue to engage with the House through the petitioning system. I thank the House.
