Chairperson, hon Speaker, hon Deputy President and colleagues, firstly, the IFP joins the other speakers in thanking all persons who have been involved in the leadership and management of Parliament over the past year, and we wish them well for the years ahead. Hon Chairperson, I want to start by saying that we really welcome the fact that smaller parties are given at least three minutes to speak in the Votes that we are dealing with now; we hope that this becomes a practice in this House as well. This is because sometimes, as smaller parties, we get one minute to speak. Before you even warm up and say hello, good morning and how are you, your one minute has expired. I think in the interest of democracy and Parliament being a place where the people know what political parties have to say on whatever, we need more speaking time. [Interjections.]
