Small Business Development Budget Review and Recommendations Report 16 Oct 2019

Prof C Msimang (IFP) was somewhat concerned that the Department was under-spending its budget.

NO412E 4 Mar 2015

Madam Chair, we do appreciate the strategies by government to help reintegrate ex-offenders. Our observation, however, is that on the ground there are certain communities which are still reluctant to rehabilitate ex-offenders. The question is: Can these ex-offenders have recourse to the government? In other words, will they receive any ...
NO461E 4 Mar 2015

Hon speaker, while we do compliment the government's intentions and efforts to promote our languages and cultures, there are members of the public who still come across officials in government offices who refuse to address them in any other language but their own.
