Chairperson, I want to thank the Deputy Minister for the history lesson. Those of us who work in the portfolio committee already know the information she has just given us. So, what I need to know is: What action are you going to take in the Ministry to ensure that the building of the hundreds of stations that we need actually takes place?
I presume you are aware that while the SAPS took over 10% of the building of stations in the past year, they managed to build the exact sum of zero. They built nothing. Admittedly, they took that 10% from the utterly defunct Ministry of Public Works, which does not do anything either. However, when they took over, they said they would build stations, but they failed to do so.
I have to ask you for your forward plan. What are you going to do about this? Public Works does not work. The SAPS does not work and should not, or cannot, build. What are you going to do? We know the history. Can we look forward, please?
