Hon Speaker ...
Ngizofisa ukwazisa amalungu amabili umhloniswa uDikobo nomhlonishwa u- Hoosen ukuthi ... [I would like to inform two members, hon Dikobo and hon Hoosen, that ...]
... maybe the best thing ...
... abathathe zonke lezi zichibiyelo kanye nalo Mthethosivivinywa bakufunde kanyekanye kodwa bangakuchathi ukuze baqondisise ukuthi ngempela ngempela lezi zinto zithini. [... would be to read all these amendments together with this Bill but they must do it properly in order for them to have a better understanding of what they mean.]
It's unfortunate that some of them are not members of the committee and that is why they don't have full information about this legislation.
Secondly ...
... kumalungu amasha e-DA omnumzane uMubu no-G G Hill-Lewis ... [... to the new members of the DA, Mr Mubu and G G Hill-Lewis ...]
... I believe that it is because they were not participating in the processes. It's fortunate that hon Mudau and Van der Westhuizen were chucked out of the committee because they supported the legislation. [Interjections.] That's the kind of people we have in South Africa.
I want to share with them that the sheltered employment factories were established in 1943. We are amending it in order to transform them into public employment enterprises, because we want to transform that particular sector which was, at that time, only meant for white people and those soldiers who were injured while in uniform. We can't proceed with such legislation.
If they are serious when saying that they want to participate in redressing the injustices of the past, they should support this particular legislation. So now we understand exactly the kind of chameleon we are working with in South Africa. [Interjections.]
I want to say to hon Mubu that this Bill does not talk about increasing the fines. Don't put your confusion into this particular legislation. Secondly, hon Mubu, we are not establishing Productivity SA, because it already exists. We have only amended it. [Interjections.] Maybe it is a case of your not understanding the language that was used, therefore you are confusing yourself.
At the same time I want to say to hon Mubu, it is clear that when it comes to immigration laws you don't understand the role of the Department of Labour. The Department of Labour makes recommendations to Home Affairs, which has the final say when it comes to the employment of foreign nationals. We also work together with the Department of Trade and Industry. So, don't come and express your confusion here. You should probably thank South Africa, because you also fall under the category of foreign national. [Interjections.] You should probably appreciate being in South Africa, because you won't find a South African in the Chambers of your country ... [Interjections.]
