In actual fact the follow-up question that you asked earlier on is this question that has been put to the Minister. So, you were thanking the Minister, and not putting a follow-up question. Thank you very much then. That being the case, hon Minister, thank you very much. We appreciate your availability.
Department taking back sport infrastructure functions and development of sporting codes in rural areas
34. Mr D D Gamede (ANC) asked the Minister of Sport and Recreation:
(1) Whether his department intends to take back sport infrastructure functions since it has been found that most municipalities do not prioritise these functions despite funds being allocated to them; if not, why not; if so, what are the relevant details;
(2) whether any sporting codes are directed to rural areas for development, including traditional or otherwise, such as stick fighting, umlabalaba, nqabeshu, boxing or weightlifting; if not, what is the position in this regard; if so, what are the relevant details? CO214E
