Deputy Speaker, the ANC supports the committee report because the briefing received by the Departments of Social Development and of Justice and Constitutional Development envisage a more comprehensive amendment process of the Children's Act that already started in 2011. This process has been completed and is now before the Cabinet. This will ensure that all aspects with regard to adoption, unsuitability to work with children and many more will be included to bring the Act in line with the Criminal Law (Sexual Offences and Related Matters) Amendment Act, Act 32 of 2007.
Amendments are being proposed. Does it not make better sense to follow a holistic approach instead of a piecemeal one? Thank you. [Applause.]
