That this House notes with the utmost alarm the announcement of Field Marshal Sir Peter Inge of plans to sell Scorpion tanks and 16 more Hawk aircraft to Indonesia; recalls that Indonesia is in illegal occupation of East Timor contrary to numerous United Nations resolutions; is appalled at the Field Marshal's statement that the blatant abuse of human rights in East Timor is 'the politics of another country'; and calls upon Her Majesty's Government to follow the United States example and become a negligible instead of the foremost arms supplier.

That this House acknowledges the fact that the Turkish intervention in Cyprus on 20th July 1974 was undertaken in conformity with the 1960 Treaty of Guarantee to which the United Kingdom, Turkey and Greece were parties, and was motivated by the need to protect the Turkish community on the island and their right to exist; notes the recent efforts which have been made under the auspices of the United Nations, including the goodwill mission of the Secretary General, to promote confidence building measures and to find a basis for a sustainable settlement; affirms that the contribution of the parties should remain within this framework; and welcomes the fact that Mr Denktash, the Turkish Cypriot leader, has extended his full support and shown a positive approach to the process, which should be shared by his Greek Cypriot counterpart.

That this House believes that the arrival of St. Augustine and his fellow monks to convert the English to Christianity can be seen as one of the most significant events in the history of the nation, since there derives from it much of the origins of the national religion, literature, learning, art, music, architecture, agriculture and horticulture, and the monuments of these activities; and calls for the Post Office to issue a set of stamps to commemorate and give prominence to the fourteenth centenary of the arrival of St. Augustine in Kent in AD 597.

That this House is appalled that the full proposals for the National Curriculum have not been placed in the House for honourable and Right honourable Members who had only the wildly differing versions of the Press on which to judge their worth; and calls upon the Secretary of State for Education to apologise to the House and arrange for the presence of the proposals immediately.

That this House notes that the Hazchem code identifies the material being received in a hazardous load and gives vital information to the emergency services on its handling; further observes that the ADR system, used on the continent, omits the instructions to firefighters and other emergency services; and calls upon Her Majesty's Government to ensure that the European Union adopts the superior Hazchem code as the compulsory marking for hazardous loads.

That this House notes the shoddy English of EDM 704; deplores the use of vulgar colloquil language in a formal motion concerned with education; is determined, nonetheless, that it should not be allowed to mask the shameless patronage of the Tory Party, as encapsulated in the appointment of the Chairman of Sun Alliance to head the new funding agency for schools; and calls upon the Government to give a higher priority to the improvement of standards than it does to the reward of its benefactors.

That this House reaffirms its wholehearted admiration for the work of the Commonwealth Institute, both in London and its Northern Regional Centre in the Saltaire area of Bradford; notes the wonderful impact of the latter, though less than three years old; attests once more its commitment to spread the knowledge and understanding of the principles of the Commonwealth and its diverse peoples throughout the United Kingdom; is equally full of praise for the autonomous Institute in Edinburgh; notes that the ACP-EEC Foundation for Cultural Co-operation has contributed to the Institute's funds; and calls, therefore, upon Her Majesty's Government to re-examine its budgetary priorities and restore the Institute's grants urgently.

That this House notes the case of Mrs. S. Collier of Leamington Spa who lost her job because the company Be Wise asked her to work on Sunday 16th January from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. and she questioned their right to do; considers the firm's behaviour to have been uncaring; and believes it casts doubt upon guarantees that were offered by those advocating Sunday deregulation.

That this House acknowledges the Pope's rededication to the principles of Rerum Novarum (enunciated over 100 years ago) calling for a just wage for workers and for their right to membership of trades unions and of co-operative movements protected by law; welcomes his condemnation of the rise in unemployment and poverty resulting in human misery as well as his reaffirmation of a concern for community as opposed to individualism; affirms its opposition to achieving this through totalitarianism; endorses therefore the social clauses of Maastricht as first step in nurturing socialism's positive kernels; and calls on her Majesty's Government to re-examine its decision to reject the Social Chapter.

That this House notes with concern that following the acquisition of the Dalesman Publishing Company by Timothy Benn Publishing, a London based publishing house, the origination work of The Dalesman magazine has been transferred from Yorkshire to the South of England; further notes that in addition to causing a loss of employment in Yorkshire this change raises serious questions as to whether The Dalesman can retain the unique Yorkshireness of its content which has been at the heart of its success for many years; and calls upon the new owners of the magazine to repatriate its production as a matter of urgency and ensure it remains essentially Yorkshire in character.

That this House recalls the pledges made by the President of the Board of Trade on the consultative processes in the 10 pits, and equally remembers the pious utterances of concern expressed by British Coal; and therefore calls upon the former to condemn, and the latter to cease, the practice of blackmailing miners into voting for closures by placing artificial and very short time limits for the receipt of enhanced benefits, as exemplified in the Grimethorpe closure.

That this House notes the usually small attendance of honourable and Right honourable Members at Prayers each day; believes that even amongst those attending devotions there are a number whose concern is more to do with a seat in the Chamber than a place in heaven; considers that in a society made up of believers in many religions and none, it is inappropriate to hold Church of England prayers alone; further notes the great pressure amongst honourable and Right honourable Members to intervene at Question Time; and resolves to end the period allocated for prayers and to add the time to Question Time to Ministers.
