Hon Landers, the chairperson of the Portfolio Committee on Justice and Constitutional Development, will introduce the report. Let me correct that - I am now told that there will be no introduction.
There was no debate.
Question put: That the nomination of Mr Kevin Sifiso Malunga for appointment as Deputy Public Protector be approved.
Hon members, in terms of section 2A of the Public Protector Act of 1994 the person nominated for appointment as Deputy Public Protector must be approved by the majority of the Members of the Assembly. Although a division has not been demanded, members are required to record their support for the motion. The bell will now be rung for five minutes.
Deputy Speaker, on a point of order: I request that the hon Kilian be asked not to use her phone in the House. [Interjections.]
I am sure she will refrain from doing that. She knows it is not to be used in the House. [Interjections.] Order!
Hon Deputy Speaker, I apologise.
Thank you, hon member!
