Chairperson, I hereby give notice on behalf of Cope that on the next sitting day of the Council I shall move:
That the Council-
1) notes the extent of the impact the intervention by the national Department of Education in the Eastern Cape has had between the national Minister and the MEC;
2) also notes that the MEC has not been fired for nonperformance;
3) further notes that cadre deployment is running the show; and
4) acknowledges the need for penal measures to be taken against the culprits without fear or favour.
