Hon members, that was not a question. In terms of the Rules of the NCOP, if there is a question that has been written for an oral reply and we do not get that, there are systems in place to make sure that question will be attended to. This is to protect the member who has written the question. That is why we have the question and the Minister went to town in clarifying the question in detail. That is why even the sponsor of the question, hon Boshoff, was satisfied.
Hon members, on behalf of the Chair and Deputy Chair, allow me to thank the Deputy Minister of State Security for availing himself and dealing with the questions. Once again, hon members of the NCOP, we do not take your conduct of holding members of the Executive accountable in an orderly fashion for granted. That is commendable! Thank you very much. [Applause.]
Members, you are reminded of a very important Women's Parliament tomorrow. Please do not forget that.
Debate concluded.
