Debate on the Zimbabwe motion started after 10:00 am this morning. The motion (attached) was moved by IFP MP Suzanne Vos (SA) and was seconded by Boyce Sebetela (Botswana). Despite a divisive debate and a spirited attempt by Zimbabwean ZANU PF MPs that sought to allege external forces as the cause for the Zim crisis the Parliament voted (by show of hands) 149 for, 20 against and 3 abstentions. Effectively it means that a PAP delegation will be sent to Zimbabwe on a fact finding mission and report back to the Plenary.
