Chairperson, noting that South Africa was the Chairperson of Ayora from October 2017 to October 2019; and the Deputy Minister is speaking of a UN programme. I want to know how many South Africans are going to be beneficiaries to such programmes?
Besides your seminars and other elitist programmes that South Africa was chairing, what programmes do you have that are directly linked to marginalised South Africans with regard to the maritime programmes?
The DEPUTY MINISTER OF INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS AND CO-
OPERATION: Chairperson, well, as South Africa, yes, we have participated in Ayora but then, I want to indicate that as part of the collective in those structures we are part of other countries that are also benefiting in the programme.
I want to indicate that I don't have a specific figure that says South Africa has benefitted up to so much in
terms of issues of safety in the maritime, but the department that is dealing with maritime and the ocean economy is the one that will have the specific numbers. Thank you.
