Speaker, if you will allow me I will start with the last matter, which is a substantive one. The hon member does attend most of the portfolio committee meetings that we hold. He will no doubt know that we do have a big disaster in North West in an area called Carltonville.
He will also know that together with the Department of Provincial and Local Government, we are in the process of ensuring that we can remove those people who are living on a dolomitic area, to a new area, so that we can build a new village there. We have discussed this at length. This is what we are using that money for. Is that understood? You won't ask again. I thank you. [Laughter.]
You do know that ... [Interjections.] Please allow him to interact with me. We interact quite freely in the portfolio committee without any interference from the rest of you. [Laughter.] As far as non-statutory forces are concerned, you know that we have a policy in terms of which we are dealing with these forces and the provision of housing. You know that we dealt with that matter in the last budget. It is with us and not with Defence. We discussed this and you understand it. [Laughter.]
Hon Speaker, I just wish that he had not been dragged out of the coffee room, because most of these matters were dealt with at length in the portfolio committee. I thank you very much. [Laughter.]
