by leave—I present the following petition of SAS Trooper Evan Donaldson, containing about 5500 signatures. I have placed on my social media an interview I carried out with Trooper Donaldson and his wife. This family have been involved in a six-year battle to understand why Trooper Donaldson's official Army records have been fraudulently altered in order to deny his service with the SAS.

Overwhelming evidence has been presented to me which indicates that Trooper Donaldson is the innocent victim of a criminal reprisal action by his direct superiors, which has been condoned and covered up at the highest levels of this government, the SAS and ADF.

I want a special Senate investigation into these claims. I want ADFA Sergeant Major and Warrant Officer William Maher; Brigadier Stuart Davies; Head of Defence Legal Services, Mark Cunliffe; and Head of the Fraud Investigation and Control Branch, Michael Callan to appear under oath before this Senate committee.
