Hon Speaker, hon President, there are many more SAPS members that serve South Africa and its citizens with honour and dignity, going beyond the call of duty embodied in the motto of the SA Police Service, that reads: Protect and serve.
Mr President, human rights form the basis of our Constitution and therefore should also guide the SAPS in their execution of their duties. One of the problems that don't need a commission in it as we all know that it's there is the fact that many people who join the SA Police Service do so because they see it as a job and not as a career.
Will government consider taking the necessary steps so that we can attract people who want to make a career out of the SA Police Service and not merely a job?
