Hon member, I am not going to become involved in an inquisition. I am saying and I'll continue to say this that there is a process in place and that process is designed to do all these things that you are talking about. You want me to become involved in a situation where, in fact, we would be opening the floodgates if we do that.
Someone comes and accuses you of one thing or the other and what you are now introducing into South Africa is that when there is an allegation against you, you must immediately step down from whatever your position is. I am not going to support anything like that because there are so many allegations that are being made about so many people. And if we were to say that anyone against whom there is an allegation needs to stop the work they are doing, South Africa would grind to a halt.
