Deputy Chairperson, I want to move without notice:
That the Council-
1) notes -
a) with grave concern the continuing interruption of work by striking workers in the Green Point Stadium; and b) that yesterday the workers, brandishing wooden poles, rocks and hammers, went on the rampage, which resulted in suspension of work in the stadium until Tuesday next week; and
2) takes this opportunity to call on all the parties involved to put the interests of the people of South Africa and the broader African continent first by ensuring that this issue is resolved and that construction of the stadium resumes immediately, so as to be ready by 2009.
Motion agreed to in accordance with section 65 of the Constitution.
