That this House notes with approval the friendly competition between the Houses of Parliament in a variety of sports, games and recreations; and in particular welcomes the organisation, support and sponsorship of the Parliamentary Rowing Race which now takes place each year, and which was inaugurated in 2006, in replicas of the boats used in the first race between Cambridge and Oxford, on which occasion the Commons team, captained by the hon. Member for Worthing West, finished first.
