Madam Deputy Speaker, I acknowledge the contributions that were made by hon members of this House, including the hon member who just took the floor. I must also say that one of the key outcomes of Durban, through this historic outcome, was a balanced package of decisions that also included the launch of the Green Climate Fund.
The Southern African Development Community, SADC, summit recently endorsed the hosting of the secretariat of the Green Climate Fund in Windhoek, Namibia. This is just one way of making sure that we continue to keep our eye on the ball, and we have to continue doing that.
As I said earlier on, the negotiations will start in earnest in 2015. So, we have the period between 2015 and 2020. What we need to do is to continue working together with other developing countries, African Union members in particular.
Luckily, the Ministers of environment from our continent will be meeting in September to do all the reviews before we go to Qatar in December of this year. This is to make sure that we continue making the requisite preparations, to be advised by science and also to collate all the necessary information as we build up towards the start of the negotiations in 2015. In the meantime, we do have a bridge - the Kyoto Protocol - that is in use and enforced until the negotiations start and until the actual implementation of the new platform to be launched in 2020.
