Madam Deputy Speaker, I move without notice:
That the House -
1) notes with profound sadness the passing away on Friday, 18 June 2010, of the Manager of the Corporate Services Division of Parliament, Mr Mzikayise Sydney Mbangula;
2) further notes that "Bra Mzi'', as he was affectionately known, was a loyal servant of Parliament from 1 June 2002 until his death and leaves behind his wife, Thembeka, three children, his mother Nomzikayise, two brothers and four sisters;
3) recognises his invaluable contribution to the activities of Parliament as a whole and the Corporate Services Division in particular; and
4) expresses its sincere condolences to his family, friends and loved ones.
Agreed to.
Madam Deputy Speaker, we obviously have no objections to that motion, but the matter I want to raise is that the photograph that was pictured on the screen was highly inappropriate because it had the ANC flag on it. Mr Mbangula was an official of Parliament first and foremost, and nothing else. Political affiliation should be completely irrelevant and I object to that. Thank you.
But are you not objecting to the motion?
Not at all.
Okay, thank you very much.
