[Ms T K MAMPURU: Hon Chairperson, our great task as leaders in government is to tell the good story to South Africans about the developments on what we have done, what we are currently doing, and what we plan to do. We are 21 years into democracy in South Africa, and this bears testimony to the remarkable progress that even the blind man from Jericho can see. The only thing the rivals can do is to criticise and disapprove, but this will not stop us from doing good to improve the lives of South Africans.
What does the NDP stand for? It stands for the National Development Plan. The government is working together with all the departments to optimise service delivery. It will focus on the obstacles that deter them from fulfilling their role effectively. This plan will shape the budget allocation for efficient service delivery.]
The NDP has also identified the task of improving the quality of the Public Service as critical to achieving transformation. It has also prioritised the need for the state to professionalise the Public Service and strengthen accountability.
E a it?okot?a ANC, e a it?okot?a! Re eme fa re le komiti re phethagat?a lona la motho wa pejana ge a re dihlatse e ba t?e pedi, gomme t?e tharo di a botega.

[Indeed, the ANC is making great strides. As a committee, we can confirm that you are on the right track. Hence, they say that two witnesses are sufficient, but three would be better. Your work is commendable. We have proof. If it were not the case, we would simply demand that you get to work.
The former identity document - dompas - has always been a nightmare for South Africans. Fortunately, the ANC Women's League took it upon themselves to protest against the apartheid government. The size of a dompas was that of a big notebook. [Interjections.] Yes, that was in 1956. Hon Minister, today we pride ourselves on the efforts you took. The use of the ID smart card is in full swing at the moment. The good news is that it takes only five days to process the ID smart card. What I like the most is that it is user-friendly and you can even apply for it online. You can even do it from your cellphone. Rest in peace, Mma Ruth Mompati, you have won the battle.
These are examples of what you can use this ID smart card for. You can register for housing; you can use it to get credit; you can apply for all driving licence codes; you can receive a child support grant, a disability grant, a foster child grant and an older persons grant, as well as receiving food parcels.
I have heard some claims that we use this as a strategy to lobby for votes. That is not the case. It was through this identity document that some of the members here made it into Parliament. How else would they have been voted for, had they not had identity documents? This is ridiculous! Forward we go, backwards never! Together, we are taking services to the people.
I am glad that in my province of Limpopo, new office buildings for the Department of Home Affairs are being built. This is because the existing offices are old and on lease. Currently, the construction of 15 offices is under way. The department is working together with the SA Social Security Agency to create convenience for the senior citizens and the disabled. This is a better life for all. Forward we go!
However, this does not mean that there are no challenges. We still have neighbouring foreign nationals crossing our borders illegally. This poses a serious security threat to the country. Security fences at border gates, such as at Beitbridge, need to be electrified again to restore efficient security.
Fellow South Africans, you are advised to register the birth of your children within 30 days after birth. This is more important, as some of you will need the child support grant. A birth certificate is a prerequisite for the child to be regarded legally as a citizen of this country and to receive a child support grant.
In addition to this, the department aims to correct the errors of the past. The apartheid government has really done us harm. In Mangaung ...]
... the national conference of the ANC resolved that the government should reconsider its policy relating to centres for asylum seekers during consideration of their status. The department should also take the lead in the Border Management Agency as it is seized with immigration issues. This is just to mention a few. I am over the moon because the Minister and the Deputy Minister, not excluding their personnel ...

[... because of the idiom which goes: "Two hands are better than one." It is indeed like that.
We support this Budget Vote. We applaud your hard work. Together, let us build a better South Africa for all and contribute to a better Africa and the international community, at large. In that way, we will be a true nation.
Hon member, you were just talking about xenophobic attacks. As to where in South Africa you live, it is unknown. I suspect you were overseas when the Department of Home Affairs, the SA Police Service, the State Security Agency and the Department of Arts and Culture, as well as all the ANC structures, came up with programmes of taking services to the people, to fight against this way of ...[Interjections.]]
