Chairperson, hon member, I think that we have to understand that the responsibility does in fact lie on the executive authority of each department to take the necessary action. My responsibility is to ensure that the executive authorities are aware that this in fact is so and if there is someone in their department who has not complied that they are informed about it and that is what we do. We shall continually do that and exhort our colleagues to take the necessary action in terms of the law.
