Chair, I just want to give some clarity on the last statement raised on the matter of the distribution agencies of the lottery and its suspension. As far as we are concerned, from the Department of Trade and Industry, it was the court order that challenged how the award was given to Gidani - not the running of the distribution agencies and all that. So, the suspension was based on that.
As the Minister reported before, he was looking at that issue and the Lotteries Board met with him and discussed different options. He said that he would make an announcement at the appropriate time. I hope the hon member can wait for that and then deal with the other issues. If she has a problem with the distribution agencies, she can put this in writing and send it to the department, but must not make assumptions because that is why there is a lot of confusion and all other issues that she raised. That is not why the Lotto was suspended. The suspension was based on the agency that was going to run it and not the distribution agencies.
I think that all the other statements were for the different clusters and for Agriculture which is part of Land Affairs, etc. But they were all appropriate, I'm sure. We wish hon members well in doing their constituency work. Thank you.
Thank you, hon Deputy Minister. Are there any other Ministerial responses? There are none.
Before concluding the business of the day, I wish to remind members that buses are waiting outside to take them to the book launch at the Cape Town International Convention Centre.
