Chairperson, I give notice that I shall move at the next sitting of the Council:
That the Council notes that -
1) the Phuthaditjhaba, Qwaqwa area has the highest unemployment rate in the Free State province;
2) the DA calls on the provincial government and private enterprises to create an enabling environment for business and industry in the Qwaqwa area to ensure more jobs and employment;
3) the DA and the DA youth policies should be followed to create an open-opportunity society for all the people; and
4) job seekers and the youth must be subsidised by means of work vouchers to encourage business and industry to employ more people, especially the youth, whilst they learn a trade.
