As I conclude, please allow me to thank the Deputy Minister, Comrade Ayanda Dlodlo, for her support during this most difficult period for the portfolio, the chairperson, Mrs Joyce Moloi-Moropa, and members of the Portfolio Committee on Public Service and Administration for their guidance, tolerance and support the Public Service commissioners who tirelessly push the Public Service for continuous improvement. May I also extend my gratitude to all the heads of the institutions within the Ministry for the Public Service and Administration for their continued efforts towards creating a better life for all South Africans. With these words, Chairperson, I now table the proposed budget for the department and request that this House supports the proposed Budget Vote. Thank you. [Applause.]
