(Mr M L Fransman): Hon Deputy Speaker, hon Sonto posed a question, and there are a lot of questions still to be raised around this particular NGO that received R11 million from the City of Cape Town.
The reality is that in the case of this particular NGO, Bambanani officials were closed down in the Western Cape. At each school two security officials with trained personnel and with two-way radios were in place. Four years ago, the provincial government of the Western Cape closed them down.
Secondly, R11 million was transferred through deviation order from the City's books to an NGO that suddenly came up from nowhere. That same NGO then, somewhere in Hanover Park, requested in writing to the parole board the early release of a known gangster in Cape Town and a known drug merchant. Those are the real questions that need to be investigated in this particular case.
Thirdly, I think we must ask the DA MP who has spoken. We actually are astonished by the way in which the national Minister is decent in his interaction with the provincial government after it tried to embarrass him, after it tried to throw stones and after it tried to do all of these things.
We are saying yes to co-operation, but no to the provincial government actually putting up alternative mechanisms to undermine law enforcement through the SAPS in the Western Cape. That is the real issue to be investigated, and we are dealing with that. [Interjections.]
