Concerning administration? Are you saying that this department has already been given to administration? I come from Mpumalanga. You were probably waiting for Mpumalanga to say that there are exam leaks and so on but, because this department knows how to intervene, that has not happened. [Applause.]
The intervention by the Ministry of Basic Education clearly shows that our national efforts to improve our people's access to quality education systems are noble and unshakable. This reaffirms our commitment to transform the education system in South Africa and break all challenges that hinder our people's access to quality education and teaching in our schools. As Mpumalanga, we therefore understand and share the seriousness with which the Ministry views the suspension of scholar transport programmes and all others.
