Hon Chairperson, I hereby give notice that on the next sitting day of the Council I will move on behalf of Cope, which is recognised by the ANC and led by our president, Mr Lekota:
That the Council -
1) notes the failure of the government to prosecute Zondwa Mandela and Khulubuse Zuma, directors of Aurora Empowerment Systems mining company, on charges that were formulated against them 13 months ago;
2) further notes the fact that the two directors could be hauled before a court this year on further charges of water pollution, according to the Department of Water Affairs; and
3) acknowledges that government must ensure that justice is served and that the laws of this country are not bent for the political elite.
