Thank you very much.
If you look at the Defence Review document, you'll see that it talks to the rejuvenation of the SANDF. That is one of the areas that we are looking into. I know that there have been criticisms that we have to a large extent an aged Defence Force but I can assure you, the fact that we have an average of 45 to 50, does not mean that we have a Defence Force which is not up to the task. So, we are talking rejuvenation, which is something. Of course it does require some funding but obviously if you are to have professionalised and highly skilled members of the SANDF, you have to up your training capabilities as well.
Of course, we have developed our own force structure and design and these are some of the things which do not necessarily require money
for us to do but these a re plans. There is a lot of planning which is being done but of course, what hinder us from making progress are the fiscal constraints which we have.
There are other matters which are outlined in the Defence Review which talks to other capabilities other than the landward capabilities. And for those we can't move, we have to wait until such time the finance is available for that. Thank you.
