Motions — Israel—70th Anniversary of Recognition as State
Time unknown
I seek leave to move a motion without debate to recognise the 70th anniversary of Resolution 181 in the United Nations regarding the recognition of Israel as a State.
💬 Mr SPEAKER: Is there any objection to that? There appears to be none. The member may so move.
I move, That we recognise the 70th anniversary of Resolution 181 in the United Nations regarding the recognition of Israel as a State, and acknowledge that New Zealand was one of 83 countries and nations that voted for the motion, which set in train the international recognition of the State of Israel, which came into being on 14 May 1948.
Motion agreed to.
