by leave—I present to the Senate a document, which is a submission by Rise Queensland under the National Plan to Reduce Violence against Women and their Children 2010-2022. I believe this document, which is in the form of a nonconforming petition, has been circulated to the whips and agreed for tabling.

The Clerk: Petitions have been lodged for presentation as follows:

TO THE HONOURABLE PRESIDENT AND MEMBERS OF THE SENATE IN PARLIAMENT ASSEMBLED.

This Petition of citizens of Australia draws to the attention of the Senate:

      We therefore ask that the Senate:

        by Senator Lundy (from 2,399 citizens).

        Petitions received.
