Hon Deputy Speaker, Deputy President, thank you for your response. It is very clear from your response that there is insufficient funding and insufficient capacity for the Moral Regeneration Movement. This is at a time when high levels of drugs and alcohol abuse, horrendous murders and rapes, fraud and
corruption and the abuse of women and children that you refer to are occurring.
While the ACDP appreciate that other partners contribute to the movement and that it is civil-society driven, it is clear as you indicated that far more needs to be done. Everyone in this House and every citizen needs to accept responsibility for moral regeneration and to restore the country's moral foundation. There is a desperate need for this, as you indicated and as evidenced by the recently expressed outrage against gender-based violence.
Given this and the insufficient funding, the lack of capacity and the fact that you, Deputy President, will be meeting with the Moral Regeneration Movement: Would you not agree that it is important to broaden the movement to reach and influence other NGOs and to incorporate churches that in particular can play a key role in strengthening the moral fabric of our nation and make South Africa a better place for all of us to live in.
We also believe, from the ACDP's side, that the proposed comprehensive sexuality education to young children may
undermine healthy moral values. But, just on the issue of churches involving faith-based organisation, I would like to hear your comments. Thank you, Deputy President.
