Motion text

That this House congratulates Oxfam and Dame Helen Mirren for highlighting the humanitarian crisis in northern Uganda; acknowledges the vast human suffering in that region; deplores the crime against humanity that is the kidnap of children for training as child soldiers; condemns the barbarous practices of the Lord's Resistance Army; encourages the Ugandan Government to continue in its efforts to seek peace in northern Uganda; urges it to ensure that internally displaced persons receive the aid they need; urges the United Nations to send a fact finding mission to northern Uganda, and its Security Council to debate the findings of such a mission and to resolve to support the people of northern Uganda in their search for peace and security; urges the international community to provide such support as may be necessary to the Ugandan Government to allow the Ugandan Army to carry out counterinsurgency tasks effectively and with minimum loss of life, and to protect civilians caught up in the conflict with particular reference to children; and urges the Government to take all steps within its power to help achieve these ends.
