Thank you, Chairperson. Minister, the decision to locate the executive, the legislature and the judiciary in these separate places was the result of a political compromise by a white government in 1910, as you indicated. This decision, in my view, has resulted in unnecessary costs in running government and Parliament in regard to accommodation, travel and productivity. Now, 17 years down the line, Minister, I think that the time has come for us to review this decision of the then Union government so that money that is used for these expenses can be redirected to where I think it is needed more.
So my question to you, Minister, is: In the light of the fact that you say that this thing has been debated for the past 15 years, hasn't the time come that we take an urgent and conscious decision to try to finalise this matter so that, once and for all, we know where we stand and, in my view, save unnecessary costs to the fiscus? Ngiyabonga [Thank you], Chair.
