I move:
- That the Senate—
- (a)
- notes that:
- (i)
- 9 December 2006 marks the 5th anniversary of the capture of Mr David Hicks in Afghanistan by the Northern Alliance, and
- (ii)
- Mr Hicks is yet to be charged under the new United States Military Commission Act 2006; and
- (b)
- calls on the Australian Government to lobby for Mr Hicks’ immediate fair trial or repatriation.
Question put.
