Chairperson, I hereby give notice that at the next sitting of the House I shall move on behalf of Cope:
That the Council -
1) notes the increase in public servants from 434 in 2001-02 to 1135 in 2009-10 that are being investigated for financial misconduct;
2) further notes the more than R45 million spent onsalaries of officials who were suspended between April 2009 and March 2010;
3) acknowledges the devastating impact the increasingly cavalier attitudes of public servants have on service delivery; and
