Why
Will AUKUS keep us safe – at what cost?
In 2021, Australia, the United Kingdom and the United States announced the AUKUS partnership. A central element of this agreement is Australia's plan to acquire up to eight nuclear-powered submarines at an estimated cost of $368+ billion over 30 years — announced without prior public consultation or a parliamentary vote.
The Australian Peace and Security Forum is auspicing an independent Public Inquiry into AUKUS, led by:
- The Hon Peter Garrett AM FTSE
- Yankunytjatjara Woman Karina Lester
- Honorary Professor, Admiral Chris Barrie AC RAN R’td
- The Hon Dr Carmen Lawrence AO
- Leanne Minshull
