Hon Speaker, I move without notice:
That the House -
(1) notes with sadness the death of Ghana's president, Mr John Atta- Mills, on 24 July 2012 at the age of 68;
(2) further notes that he earned a law degree from the University of Ghana in 1967 and a doctorate from the School of Oriental and African Studies at the University of London;
(3) acknowledges that he wrote widely on taxation and was later Ghana's commissioner of internal revenue;
(4) believes that he had a calming and stabilising influence and under his leadership, Ghana's democracy was consolidated; and
4) extends its heartfelt condolences to his family, friends, colleagues and the people of Ghana.
Agreed to.
