I move:

That the Senate—

(a)

notes that:

(i)

9 December 2006 marks the 5th anniversary of the capture of Mr David Hicks in Afghanistan by the Northern Alliance, and

(ii)

Mr Hicks is yet to be charged under the new United States Military Commission Act 2006; and

(b)

calls on the Australian Government to lobby for Mr Hicks’ immediate fair trial or repatriation.

Question put.
