Thank you very much, hon Mokgoro. The challenge of unemployed graduates is one that is being tackled at various levels. Firstly, the database of such unemployed graduates is updated on an ongoing basis. The whole notion and idea of a jobs fund is also aimed at assisting those unemployed graduates who perhaps believe that they stand a better chance if they do not seek employment, but seek to create employment. That would be one way in which they could be assisted - with start-up capital - so that they can create even more job opportunities for others.
In the engineering field, for instance, there are some people who still need to do the practical work. In our discussions with the CEOs of major enterprises in South Africa we have requested that we should work together to assist them. The President has agreed to convene a meeting with the big South African companies in order to reach an agreement for our government to utilise its goodwill in support of them, so that, in turn, they could absorb the unemployed graduates, particularly those in the engineering field, because the built programme offers those kinds of opportunities.
We believe that if government and the private sector work together, such opportunities could be multiplied in the shortest possible time. Thank you.
