At the request of Senator Minchin, I move:

That the Senate—
(a)
records its deep regret and sadness at the death of Signaller Sean McCarthy who died as part of a roadside bomb attack in Afghanistan on 8 July 2008;
(b)
commends his loyal and dedicated service to the Australian Defence Force since 2001, including a tour to East Timor and two tours to Afghanistan; and
(c)
expresses its sincere condolences to Signaller McCarthy’s parents, sisters and all loved ones for their tragic loss.

Question agreed to.
