That this House welcomes the statement made by the Australian Prime Minister Kevin Rudd, who, speaking in Hiroshima on 9th June, called on the world `to resolve afresh from the ashes of this city - to work together for the common mission of peace ... and for a world where one day nuclear weapons are no more'; also welcomes his announcement that Australia is creating a new international body, the Nuclear Non-Proliferation and Disarmament Commission that will build policy and political momentum towards the 2010 Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty Review Conference; and calls on Her Majesty's Goverment actively to support the Australian initiative and to reconsider plans to replace the Trident nuclear weapons system.
