No, that is fine. I was just tempted to stop you for a few minutes to allow the hon member to be taken outside, because he is feeling cold.
May I draw the attention of the House to Questions 42, 43, 44 and 47? NCOP Rule 246(4) provides that each Minister only takes a maximum of six questions. Where more than six questions have been received, the excess questions are converted to Questions for Written Reply so that these questions do not have to stand over until the next round of questions in the cluster for social services. Written correspondence was sent to hon De Villiers, hon Gunda and hon Feldman, and their questions were all published on the Internal Question Paper dated 28 May 2010.
