Motion Text

That this House remembers the heroic campaign that followed the landings of Allied forces at Anzac Cove, Gallipoli, on 25th April 1915; joins with all Australians and New Zealanders in commemorating the bravery of the Australian and New Zealand Army Corps who sacrificed so much in defence of country and Commonwealth; congratulates the Gallipoli Association and all those responsible for the organisation of the Anzac Day ceremony at the Cenotaph, Whitehall, and the Service of Commemoration and Thanksgiving held at Westminster Abbey; and expresses its pride at the close association that exists between the people of our three nations who are bound together by language, history, culture and in sharing Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II as Head of State.
