Mr Speaker, I move without notice:
That the House -
(1) notes that 8 March is annually observed as International Women's Day, a day to celebrate women's achievements throughout history and across nations and that this day is also known as the United Nations, UN, Day for Women's Rights and International Peace;
(2) further notes that the United Nations organisation designated this day to give women the opportunity to review how far they have come in their struggle for equality, peace and development and it is also an opportunity for women to unite, network and mobilise for meaningful change;
(3) believes that to secure peace and social progress and enjoyment of human rights requires equal and full participation and development of women; and
(4) supports all endeavours geared at the realisation of women representation and participation in all decision-making structures. Agreed to.
