What is a submission to a parliamentary inquiry?

When there is an issue of public concern, a parliamentary committee can be formed to inquire into the topic. Such inquiries usually result in a report to the Parliament.

As part of an inquiry, a committee seeks the views of those who may have an interest in the topic of the inquiry. A committee may do this in a number of ways such as through public hearings, including in the form of roundtables, workshops and community statement sessions. But most commonly, a committee asks for written submissions addressing the terms of reference and then proceeds to public hearings.

Most inquiries have terms of reference, which set out the matters to be considered by the committee. The terms of reference will be available on the committee’s website.

Who Can make a submission to an Inquiry?

Any member of the general public or organisation can make a submission. Researchers, practitioners, and organisations often make submissions to inquiries that relate to their field.

Why make a submission?

Public submissions helps inform parliamentary inquiries understand what individuals, the community, and people in the field think about an issue. Submissions may also help the committee
when making its recommendations to Government. In a real parliamentary inquiry, your submission may be quoted or referred to in the final parliamentary report. Most submissions are made
public and published on the webpage advertising the inquiry. In this case though, only your markers will see your drafted submission.

Writing a submission

The Parliament of Australia offers the following advice on writing submissions to committee inquiries:

The best submissions:

  • clearly address some or all of the terms of reference—you do not need to address each one
  • are relevant and highlight your own perspective
  • are concise, generally no longer than four to five pages
  • begin with a short introduction about yourself or the organisation you represent
  • emphasise the key points so that they are clear
  • outline not only what the issues are but how problems can be addressed, as the committee looks to submissions for ideas to make recommendations
  • only include documents that directly relate to your key points
  • only include information you would be happy to see published on the internet.
