Hon Deputy Speaker, let me first thank the hon members for supporting this repeal Bill. Thank you very much.
The mission of the ANC is twofold in the main. Firstly, it is to unite all South Africans across race, gender and class. Secondly, it is to eradicate the legacy of colonialism and apartheid in all its forms. Now, since 1994, the ANC in this House and in the various legislative bodies across the country has been introducing legislation and policies to achieve this objective. Today this repeal Bill is part of this process of uniting South Africans and of eradicating the legacy of colonialism and apartheid. That is why we appreciate that today we have unanimously, as members of this House, accepted this repeal Bill.
Lastly, it is very important for us to note that it is not going to take us 24 hours, 24 months or even five years to eradicate the legacy of colonialism and apartheid. It is going to take a lot of time, a lot of resilience, a lot of hard work and a lot of commitment. That's what we mean by the national democratic revolution. We sometimes hear people asking what it is that we mean by the national democratic revolution. This is exactly what we mean. It is a process. It is going to take us a bit of time, but we are committed to it, and we will achieve our objective. Thank you very much. [Applause.]
Debate concluded.
