Hon Speaker, we are a democracy, and people are entitled to their opinions as long as government acts in the best interest of the country. That is what matters. Many of the investors who invest in this country, overseas investors, come from countries that have organised labour, and it is not new to them that sometimes organised labour speaks in the interest of its members in a manner that contradicts what government decides to do or a position that government decides to pursue.
We try to the best of our abilities to ensure - not only with Cosatu, but with all major stakeholders - that we consult and find consensus positions. Where, as in this case, government believes that this is the right thing to do, government does act in that fashion. Thank you.
