Mr Speaker, hon Deputy President, I move without notice:
That the House -
1) notes that on Sunday, 6 September 2009, the South African Police Service, led by the Minister of Police, held a memorial service for its fallen comrades;
2) recalls that in the past year a total of 105 police officers were murdered, 41 of those while on duty;
3) remembers that the SAPS commemorated the day with grieving families and friends of their former colleagues by laying wreaths at the Union Buildings;
4) recognises that the SAPS commemoration day is a tribute to our women and men in blue uniform who sacrifice their lives so that we can live a better life; and
5) conveys its condolences to the families who lost their loved ones in the battle against crime.
Agreed to.
