Speaker, on behalf of the Chief Whip of the Majority Party, I move without notice:
That the House -
1) notes that the International Day Against Drug Abuse and Illicit Trafficking is observed annually on 26 June and is a day dedicated to strengthening action and co-operation to achieve the goal of an international society free of drug abuse;
2) acknowledges that drug markets have reached global dimensions of huge magnitude and that the networks of this crime syndicate have grown in their reach and sophistication across national boundaries;
3) believes that there is a need to enhance our systems of border control and to improve the capacity of our defence force and intelligence agencies to secure the integrity of our nation-state; and
4) calls upon government and civil society to mobilise to prevent the sale and distribution of drugs and to develop a comprehensive and effective drug prevention strategy which promotes healthy and safe lifestyles among youth.
Agreed to.
