Deputy Speaker, will the Minister take a question? [Interjections.] Will you take a question, Minister? [Interjections.]
The MINISTER OF AGRICULTURE, FORESTRY AND FISHERIES: I am certainly not going to take your question. I have heard enough of them.
All right! No answers ... [Interjections.]
The MINISTER OF AGRICULTURE, FORESTRY AND FISHERIES: There are seasonal workers that farmers have employed through labour brokers. They have brought in Zimbabwean and Lesotho foreigners. This will be regulated.
Madam Chair, on point of order: Is the Minister not aware that all that she is talking about are national - national! - competencies? [Interjections.]
That is not a point of order. Minister, can you round off your speech, because your time has expired? [Interjections.]
The MINISTER OF AGRICULTURE, FORESTRY AND FISHERIES: In regard to the dangerous route of cheap politicking, you will not be able to sweep this matter under the carpet. The international world will remember the strike of farm workers in the Western Cape forever! [Applause.]
Thank you, hon Minister. There is still time for one response if there is a taker. There are none.
