Madam Chairperson, I move without notice:
That the Council -
1) notes that the hon Mr T D Harris, who was the Western Cape Provincial Whip, has since been redeployed by the DA and sworn in as a member of the National Assembly; and
2) takes this opportunity to congratulate the hon Harris for his diligence and commitment to his work since joining the NCOP in May 2009 and wishes him well on his new deployment.
I hope the hon Watson will not object to this motion. Thank you. [Laughter.]
Motion agreed to in accordance with section 65 of the Constitution.
