I move:

That the Senate—
(a)
notes:
(i)
the recent study by Johns Hopkins University that estimates more than 650 000 Iraqis have died since the invasion of Iraq in March 2003, as a result of the conflict and that more than a third of the deaths are attributed to the actions of Coalition forces, and
(ii)
that more than 3 000 Coalition troops have died since the invasion; and
(b)
calls on the Government to immediately withdraw Australian troops from Iraq.

Question put.
