by Richard Curtain, Robin Davies and Stephen Howes
Abstract:

In February 2013 Foreign Minister Bob Carr asked The Foreign Affairs sub-committee of the Joint Standing Committee on Foreign Affairs, Defence and Trade to conduct a comprehensive parliamentary inquiry into Australia’s relationship with Timor-Leste. This is Devpolicy’s submission to the review authored by Richard Curtain, Robin Davies and Stephen Howes. Submissions closed in late March 2013. Due to the dissolution of Parliament in August 2013, the inquiry lapsed and no report was issued.
