Hon House Chairperson, the Department of Public Works remains seized with carrying out the prescripts of the Auditor-General of South Africa.
The department's turnaround strategy includes its stabilisation by, amongst other things, the following: one, ensuring proper controls and systems; two, strengthening the internal audit unit; three, addressing weaknesses in procurement and supply chain management; four, working closely with the Special Investigating Unit to investigate irregular leases and projects; and, five, finalising the human resources structure and that of the property management trading entity.
The ANC supports Vote 7: Public Works. Thank you. [Applause.]
