Deputy Chairperson, I hereby give notice that on the next sitting day of the Council I shall move on behalf of Cope:
That the Council debates -
1) the opportunity for job creation offered by many large bulk ships and tankers passing this way to load in Brazil and off Saldanha Bay, that require dry docking;
2) the nonexistent dry docking facilities in the southern hemisphere;
3) the need to initiate construction of more terminals and Industrial Development Zones, IDZs, in Saldanha, which could create hundreds of jobs during its construction in the ship repair industry and other sectors; and
4) the need for government to act in this regard before Namibia takes this development opportunity from under our noses.
