Hon Chairperson, the DA supports Rural Development and Land Reform, because we believe that redress of the imbalances of the past is very important, but the ANC is too slow in addressing the issue of redress. [Interjections.]
I declare that we cannot support this budget for one fundamental reason - the allocation from the budget for land restitution is too small. A typical example is the reopening of the land claims process, which happened just few months ago. We have requested an increase in the allocation for land restitution. [Interjections.]
