WALES AND THE RUGBY WORLD CUP

That this House warmly congratulates the Welsh rugby team on reaching the semi finals of the Rugby World Cup; recognises that this has been achieved by its exhilarating, exemplary, professional and disciplined approach led by its outstanding captain Sam Warburton and its coaching staff led by Warren Gatland; notes that this progress is also due to the way the Welsh Rugby Union led by Dennis Gethin, has nurtured mini, schools, youth and community rugby; and wishes the team every success in the remaining stages of the competition.
