Speaker, I move without notice:
That the House -
1) notes with sadness and concern the two explosions that hit the finish line of the 117th Boston Marathon in Boston, Massachusetts, in the United States of America on 15 April 2013, killing 3 persons and injuring more than 100 persons, including 2 South Africans, as runners crossed the finish line;
2) condemns in the strongest terms the inexcusable use of violence against civilians;
3) extends its condolences to the families of the deceased, the people and the government of the United States of America;
4) wishes those who were injured a speedy recovery; and
5) reaffirms its commitment to creating lasting peace through dialogue and the promotion of Human Rights throughout the world.
Agreed to.
