Mr Speaker, on behalf of the ACDP, I give notice that I shall move:
That the House -
1) notes that on 11 February at the Legal Business Awards 2010 in London, England, one of the most prestigious accolades in the international legal world was awarded to the South African lawyer who has been defending the athlete Caster Semenya pro bono;
2) recognises that the global award recognises a truly exceptional individual contribution to the legal profession during the course of 2009 and singled out the lawyer for his demonstrable commitment to pro bono and human rights, and
3) congratulates Greg Nott of Dewey & Le Boeuf in Johannesburg for his work for this South African athlete, undertaken without payment, and for his recognition by the international legal profession as lawyer of the year.
Thank you.
