Madam Deputy Speaker, on behalf of the IFP I move without notice:
That the House -
1) notes that on 27 February 2010 Chile was struck by an 8,8 magnitude earthquake, resulting in the death of more than 700 people and causing widespread damage, destroying buildings, bridges and roads in many areas;
2) further notes that at least eight aftershocks were also recorded, the largest being of 6,9 magnitude, which then set off a tsunami, hitting countries with waves higher than usual;
3) expresses its sincerest condolences and deepest sympathy to the government and the people of Chile; and
4) urges all nations, including South Africa, to send assistance to the people of Chile to help them rebuild their lives and their country as a whole.
Agreed to.
