Hon Deputy Speaker, I move without notice:
That the House -
1) notes that the 16 Days of Activism against Gender Violence is celebrated internationally and the campaign has been used as an organising strategy by individuals and groups around the world to call for the elimination of all forms of violence against women;
2) further notes that this campaign, which runs from 25 November, International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women through to International Human Rights Day on 10 December, has as its theme for the 2011 campaign: "From Peace in the Home to Peace in the World: Let's Challenge Militarism and End Violence Against Women!";
3) recognises that despite having progressive legislation in place to protect women, South Africa has a rate of intimate femicide-suicide that exceeds rates for other countries; and
4) calls on the government to resuscitate the multisector, multistakeholder 365-Day National Action Plan to End Gender Violence and for these structures to be replicated at provincial level.
Agreed to.
