The motion

That this House notes that 20 June 2013 has been designated by the United Nations (UN) as World Refugee Day; further notes that according to official UN figures there are consistently over 10 million more internally displaced persons than refugees; and therefore calls on the UN to rename 20 June 2013 as International Day of Refugees and Internally Displaced Persons.
