An Early Day Motion tabled in the Houses of ParliamentThat this House congratulates Rotary International clubs in the United Kingdom on the centenary of Rotary in Britain; believes that Rotary clubs throughout the British Isles have provided exemplary service and funds to communities both locally and internationally since 1911 and the work they do is needed more than ever today; commends Rotary International for its leadership in the Global Polio Eradication Initiative; further believes the campaign is at a critical stage as India, one of the four remaining endemic countries, has not had a polio case for 10 months; notes that globally, polio cases have reduced by more than 30 per cent. on last year; and encourages governments and the public to continue their support for this campaign.
