Speaker, firstly, let me respond to the statement regarding Tlokwe, I think this House should know that the co- ordinator for social development in Tlokwe is the mother of a DA councillor. To her dismay, we did not hand over food parcels on the day before the elections because, even though she had approved that food parcels should be distributed, they were not distributed on the day before elections.
Secondly, North West is the second province affected by poverty, and some people just talk about poverty in their boardrooms. They do not know what poverty is. Thirdly, the former Whip of Social Development, hon Pam Tshwete, brought a plastic bag, with the DA logo on, which was supposed to be used for delivering food parcels by the SA Social Security Agency.
