Chair, I am sure that the hon member will get all the answers that she needs when Sentech gets the opportunity to present itself in the following week or so. I have no doubt that the hon member will be satisfied with the ongoing positive work that is being done by the board in the attempt to turn Sentech around. I am confident that the board is in good hands and that Sentech is on its way to recovery.
I have indicated that I at present have no intention to release the report, as it is not a forensic report. It does not give the confidence that it can withstand the scrutiny of a courtroom. For instance, people who are mentioned in the report could go to court and challenge it. But it was a sufficient basis for me upon which to act in order to try to turn Sentech around. Thank you.
Steps taken to promote awareness of legislation that seeks to protect the poor and illiterate
108. Rev K R J Meshoe (ACDP) asked the Minister of Trade and Industry:
What steps has he taken to promote awareness of legislation such as the National Credit Act, Act 34 of 2005, and the Consumer Protection Act, Act 68 of 2008, that seeks to protect the rights of the poor and illiterate who sign contracts without due regard to its "small print"? NO2627E
