I move:

That the Senate—

(a) recognises the courageous and selfless sacrifice of the Australian 'Digger';

(b) shows continued support for ANZAC Day as a national day of memorial for all those who have served our nation, some paying the ultimate sacrifice, so that we may enjoy our freedoms;

(c) encourages all Australians to partake in ANZAC Day ceremonies; and

(d) calls on the Government to create a commemorative ANZAC Centenary Medal, which would be available to:

  (i) all service personnel who were enlisted on 25 April 2015 and a period of 12 months prior, and

  (ii) all service personnel who have been deployed overseas.

I seek leave to make a short statement.
