Sorry, Minister. Hon Lamoela, we respected your time when you spoke. Just a minute. Let me finish.
The MINISTER OF WOMEN, CHILDREN AND PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES: It's the truth! It's a bitter pill to swallow. You don't care for women and children and people with disabilities in the DA, period! [Interjections.] That is the truth! Take it!
I am also saying to the hon More: This lady, the first one, is right now training 150 women in the Eastern Cape, in a rural area. She is going to move from that area to all over South Africa, training women. How many jobs ... [Interjections.]
Musani ukuba nomona! Musani ukuba nomona! Umona phantsi! I-ANC iyasebenza kwaye yondla abantwana bethu. [You mustn't be jealous! You mustn't be jealous! Down with jealousy! The ANC is doing well and it feeds our children.]
I am just citing one of them. All of them are working. They are organising co-operatives. I say to the hon Diemu of Cope: They are organising their rural women. They are creating jobs. Don't come here with your misinformation. Since we had that summit, we have implemented the resolutions of that summit. When it comes to water, we have delivered to 93% of the people of South Africa universal access to water. We have delivered to 83% of people universal access to electricity. In 1994 only 30% of South Africans had electricity - even in Soweto they had no electricity.
Babebasa amalahle. [They were making fire with coal.]
Don't come with your stories.
Kuba kaloku awumelanga mntu, ungakhethwanga mntu kwaye awuzange waya kwingqungquthela kuba kaloku awunazo neempawu zobunkokheli ungenaso nesimilo. Ubhalelwa ubuxoki bodwa ubuye uze kulahlekisa iPalamente. Animameli! (Translation of IsiXhosa paragraph follows.)
[Because you do not represent anyone, you were not elected by anyone. You didn't attend the conference because you do not have leadership skills nor respect. They write lies for you which you bring here to mislead Parliament. You don't listen!]
A national plan of action has to be reviewed. We had the first one in 1996. We have reviewed it again now and we are submitting it to Cabinet.
Since when does the IFP care about women empowerment? You have ruled in KwaZulu-Natal, and we have not seen any women rise up. We are saying that the ANC government is ruling this country. Therefore, as a ruling party we have obligations, we have responsibilities, we have to go and report to the international community.
Uphi uZanele Magwaza? [Where is Zanele Magwaza?]
Because she had the leadership, she was out of the kitchen. The IFP was too hot for her. She had to get out of the kitchen.
