Madam Speaker, the IFP, in supporting the draft resolution of the majority party, wishes to share the sentiments of the ANC. We share the shock and the sadness that you feel at the loss of such an important person. I say important because she is obviously someone who has done and achieved a great deal within the ANC and certainly within the committee in which I have worked with her - that is the Correctional Services committee.
The hon Nawa has been a very committed member of the Correctional Services Portfolio Committee, as you have just heard from our hon colleague. I was with her in those two weeks when she was so ill. Her sense of humour never left her. She always continued with an incredible sense of humour and a total dedication to the Correctional Services Portfolio Committee and the work of the committee.
She continued to work throughout the time she was ill and was really and truly a committed member. I am sure that the ANC is going to miss her greatly. It is said that only the good die young, and obviously this was indeed a good person that has died young. She was obviously a good person. We wish to extend our condolences to the family, the ANC and the loved ones. May her soul rest in peace. God bless her. Thank you. [Applause.]
