That 5 June is World Environment Day;
That there are serious concerns about contributors to climate change, such as toxic chemicals, the depletion of the ozone layer, desertification and global warning; and
That climate change impacts in South Africa include changing rain patterns and increased evaporation, both of which increase the likelihood of extreme droughts and severe natural disasters, such as the recent floods in KwaZulu-Natal.

To deepen environmental awareness in our communities on an ongoing basis, and particularly during National Environment Month. (91 words)

This House notes:
That the amended Standing Rules of the KwaZulu-Natal Legislature states that the amaZulu King should not be given a guard of honour by the SA Police Service at the Official Opening of the KwaZulu-Natal Legislature as the salute is not constitutional and that only selected dignitaries, such as the President, can be ushered in with a guard of honour.

To call upon the KZN Premier and Cabinet to add the King’s salutation in the Ministerial Handbook as this will absolve the government from all accusations that it is undermining uBukhosi. (90 words)
