Speaker, Parliament is kept informed about what is going on in the government through the media, never through Ministers who are constitutionally bound to provide this House with reports. We learned that government purchased a new home for Gen Cele, after reading what Gen Cele had to say about his procurement style. The question uppermost in our minds is whether Gen Cele is busy bullying the Department of Public Works and his own department to get his way.
It seems to us that policies, procedures, the Public Finance Management Act and other statutory provisions don't matter. He makes his own rules. Similarly, all budget constraints are swept aside and monies found when the General demands something. [Time expired.] [Interjections.]
