The annual report of the Portfolio Committee on International Relations and Co-operation and the year performance review highlight the importance of public diplomacy as the number one priority of the committee's oversight work, but the committee has not yet implemented any of its plans to engage stakeholders. The University of Limpopo and the University of Cape Town are still waiting for us, and we need to move in this regard. Hence, we urge the chairperson to move with speed to ensure that we engage for public diplomacy's sake.
