BATTLE OF BRITAIN ‘LACE’
On 11 February 2025 the Senate referred the following matters to the Senate Finance and Public Administration References Committee (the committee) for inquiry and report by 5 August 2025.
The Terms of Reference are also available on the committee’s inquiry webpage.
The committee invites you to make a submission addressing all or some of the terms of reference for this inquiry by 28 March 2025. Should you require an extension, please get in touch with the committee secretariat as soon as possible. Late submissions are not generally accepted unless an extension has been granted.
Please note:
- The closing date gives the Committee time to consider submissions prior to hearings.
- The committee may not have time to consider late submissions.
- Keep your submission concise and address some or all of the terms of reference.
- Address your submission to the committee.
Information on making submissions to Senate inquiries is available online. The committee encourages the lodgement of submissions via the Online Submission System. If this is not possible, submissions should be sent via email to fpa.sen@aph.gov.au or by post at the below address.
All submissions to the inquiry become committee documents:
- A submission is only made public after a decision by the committee to accept the submission
- You should not release your submission to anyone until the committee advises you that it has been accepted and published (even though submissions as accepted by the committee are protected by parliamentary privilege, their unauthorised release before this decision is not)
- Generally, once a submission is accepted by the committee, it is published under the submitter’s name on the committee inquiry webpage, with your signature and/or contact details removed
If you would like the committee to consider receiving your submission as confidential, please provide a written explanation outlining the reasons for your request and ensure your submission is clearly identified as confidential in the correspondence. The committee will consider requests for confidentiality but cannot make promises in advance. Contact the committee secretariat if you require further advice on confidential evidence.
Details about the inquiry, including the terms of reference, can be found on the committee webpage. Further information about making a submission is available on the parliamentary website.
If you have any questions, please contact the committee secretariat on 02 6277 3846 or via email at fpa.sen@aph.gov.au.
