Surrendering Australia. The AUKUS Deception - Carmen Lawrence;Chris Barrie;Peter Garrett

Surrendering Australia: The AUKUS Deception is the AUKUS Public Inquiry Commissioners’ Report. It is the result of the AUKUS Public Inquiry, to hear from the Australian community their questions and concerns about the AUKUS deal. We conducted our report from June to November 2026, supported by public fundraising. This report reflects the majority of views of over a thousand Australians who made submissions to the Inquiry and attended public hearings over 10 days in eight cities around Australia. All who participated made clear that they cared deeply about Australia’s future security: the safety of our citizens, our democratic way of life, our sovereignty and independence, and Australia’s commitment to regional and global security.
