That this House notes that on 27 January 2013 the UK will observe Holocaust Memorial Day, the 68th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz-Birkenau, where an estimated 1.1 million people were murdered; commemorates the 6 million victims of the Holocaust; further notes that the theme for Holocaust Memorial Day 2013 is Communities Together: Build a Bridge, asking each of us to remember and stand by those who were forced to live through these experiences; pays tribute to the commitment of Holocaust survivors, who share their experiences with young people across the country; acknowledges theimportance of the Holocaust Educational Trust's work in schools across the UK and in particular the Lessons from Auschwitz Project, which has so far given over 18,000 students and teachers the opportunity to visit Auschwitz-Birkenau; pays further tribute to the Holocaust Memorial Day Trust for organising this year's Holocaust Memorial Day commemorations; further notes that a Book of Commitment will be placed in the corridor between the Members' Cloakroom and Members' Staircase between the hours of 14.30 and 16.30 from 14 to 16 January and 21 to 23 January 2013; and urges all hon. Members to sign the Book and observe the day, so that the appalling events of the Holocaust are always understood by future generations.
