Thank you very much hon Speaker, it is A M Shaik Emam, NFP. Minister, as much as you are telling us that everything is okay at the schools and you are asking the learners to go back to school, that is not the message that we are getting from many governing bodies throughout South Africa. One ideal example is the Evergreen School where they have highlighted and advised the department that they do not have the capacity, the manpower and the resources.
It appears that this thing of sending the children back to school is being pushed down the throats of people, particularly parents many of whom are opposing this. Can you tell us, have taken into consideration what the Department of Health, scientists and specialists have said in terms of social distancing with children being vulnerable to the flu as we are entering the flu season now? If they get infected with COVID-19, we do not know what is going to happen. Do you think you are taking the right decision Minister?
