Mr Speaker, I move without notice:
That the House -
1) notes that Workers' Day, celebrated on 1 May each year, and also known as International Workers' Day, has come to represent the struggle of the international labour movement to achieve workers' rights;
2) further notes that on Workers' Day, South Africans commemorate the historic struggles of workers and the role played by trade unions and other labour movements in the struggle against apartheid;
3) acknowledges that this day evolved from efforts of the labour union movement to celebrate the economic and social achievements of workers and is celebrated as a national holiday across many countries in continents around the world; and
4) calls on all workers to mobilise on 1 May and beyond, to confront the many challenges they still face and intensify the struggle for a just and equitable society.
Agreed to.
