The Attorney-General's Department released documents concerning a notice issued by the Royal Commission into Defence and Veteran Suicide Commissioner Naguib Kaldas on 30 August 2022, requiring the Inspector-General of the Australian Defence Force to provide information by 13 September 2022. The notice, issued under section 2(3C) of the Royal Commissions Act 1902, sought identification of 423 witnesses referenced in the Brereton Report (the Afghanistan Inquiry into unlawful conduct by Special Operations Task Group personnel). Specifically, the IGADF was required to identify which serving or former ADF members were interviewed, their discharge status, and whether any had died by suicide, attempted suicide, or were deceased. The disclosure relates to the Attorney-General's internal review of decisions regarding documents provided by the IGADF to the Royal Commission, connecting the Brereton Inquiry findings to the suicide prevention inquiry's investigative scope.
