Hon Chair, the hon member does indicate that this is actually a lie, in her own words. We are discussing a lie, apparently. The question from the hon member is: Have we been informed of reports from agencies regarding the increase in the number of young girls and infants that are raped?
It does appear in the question that it is a fact when, in fact, the hon member is referring to a lie. It is a lie; it is a rumour. It is only after we have done the survey, which I have referred to, that we will be able to confirm this to be a fact.
Let me address the issue of a campaign. Our programmes in the department - not only in the Department of Social Development, but also in the Departments of Basic Education and of Health - do address this question of rape, and many other programmes that relate to HIV and Aids and protection against it for people. However, we cannot definitely say that this myth, which the hon member calls a lie, is actually a fact. Our programmes and campaigns continually address these matters. We will work with those NGOs and protection agencies in order to continue to mount these campaigns. Thank you very much.
