EDM number 397 in 2000-01, proposed by Tom Cox on 05/03/2001.

That this House, in common with all parliaments of the Commonwealth, proudly observes Commonwealth Day on Monday 12th March; seeks to encourage the new generation of young people to join together in furthering international understanding; gratefully acknowledges the work of the United Kingdom branch of the Commonwealth Parliamentary Association in strengthening the links binding together the Commonwealth's ever widening family and in sharing experiences in the field of democracy; and notes with pleasure the 50th annual seminar on Practice and Procedure at Westminster currently in progress.

This motion has been signed by a total of 66 MPs.
