Chairperson, I move without notice:
That the Council -
(1) notes the recent Human Sciences Research Council's survey on the degree of satisfaction with government;
(2) further notes that, while there is an increase in levels of satisfaction with the provincial governments and the political situation in all the other provinces -
(a) the Western Cape is the only province in which most respondents were dissatisfied with their provincial government; and
(b) the Western Cape is the only province in which most respondents were dissatisfied with the general political situation in the province;
(3) is of the opinion that -
(a) the results come as no surprise since the party which received the majority of votes in the province is excluded from the government; and
(b) the results are indicative of the fact that the governing DP/New NP coalition is not reaching out to the poor people, who make up the majority of the people in the province.
Order! Is there any objection to the motion?
Yes, Chairperson.
Order! There is an objection. In the light of the objection, the motion may not be proceeded with. The motion without notice will therefore become notice of a motion.
