The
Parliamentary Secretary for Defence Support, the Hon.
Dr Mike Kelly AM MP, announced today that the independent
Defence Honours and Awards Tribunal will inquire into
recognition for Australian Cadet Forces
officers and instructors.
”I am pleased that the Defence Honours and Awards
Tribunal will inquire into recognition for Cadet officers
and instructors. This inquiry is one of the last in a
series of reviews into long-standing Defence honours and
awards issues identified by the Australian Government
in late 2007,” Dr Kelly said.
A call for submissions will be advertised shortly in national
newspapers. Submissions to the inquiry close on Monday,

”A number of people have raised with the Government
the issue of additional recognition for Australian Cadet
Forces officers and instructors. I would encourage them
