Madam Speaker, the greatest achievement of our democracy is the Constitution that it has been built upon. We have a Constitution that has been drafted by the people for the people, and it is absolutely imperative that every South African venture is endorsed through, upon and in alignment with our national Constitution.
The MF finds it unfortunate that our demarcation process has landed us in a bit of hot water with municipal boundaries, but we respect that clarity in the situation is crucial to ensures that the needs of our people are met in these areas.
In view of this and the true democracy that we strive to make progress on, the MF finds the provisions inculcated in the thirteenth amendment in line with the values and principles that our people envisioned years before the birth of democracy. It is imperative that all South African governance and decision-making is in consultation with the people.
At the end of the day, our democracy, our system of governance and the rights of our people are enshrined in this great text, which years of struggle has liberated and in which years of freedom has to be celebrated. The MF will support the Bill. [Applause.]
