Madam Deputy Speaker, I would like to agree with the hon Malale that the 40% story by the Deputy Minister of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries is a dangerous one and the President has said so.
It is precisely the reasoning behind what made the Western Cape a coloured preferential area. It is precisely the same reasoning that suggested we must be confined to the areas they called Bantustans; that is where they said we originated. It is precisely such reasoning that led to the United Nations declaring apartheid a crime against humanity.
We must desist from pursuing that philosophy. It is wrong, it is rejected, it is intellectually bankrupt and it is politically dangerous. The department is urgently working on this programme to reverse the effects of that reasoning, and we hope hon members will desist from continuing along that path. It is a dangerous one. Thank you, Madam Deputy Speaker. [Applause.]
