Deputy Speaker, hon Minister, the raid on the office of the department by the Hawks indicates the disastrous state of affairs and the lack of trust in the ability of the department to fulfil its task in issuing mining licences. It does not help you slamming the Hawks. Flowing from the above, will the Minister consider the establishment of an independent regulator to fulfil its tasks, to avoid any raids by the Hawks in future and to ensure the trust in the department is rebuilt? Thank you.
