Hon Deputy Chairperson, it is clear that you are refusing promotion when the EFF benches are actually promoting you to be the House Chairperson. [Laughter.] Hon Deputy Chairperson and hon Minister, the MDDA including Icasa, do not support community radio stations and that is a fact. Throughout the country these radio stations continue to suffer under the guard of these entities. It is clear that they do not have the best interest of our communities at heart, because they continue to close them down and they continue not to give them support.
We are dealing with lay people here who do not have - the majority of them do not have experience on how to manage the stations. If you refuse communities information, it is sabotage. We cannot have uninformed communities.
Since you took office: What measures have you put in place to make sure that whatever that is currently happening will not happen, because it is clear that this matter has been on Icasa's table and MDDA for quite some time?
