The Deputy Minister of Communications would normally have been here to make her complementary input to my budget speech. However, she is stranded in Paris as a result of the volcanic eruption in Iceland that has disrupted international air traffic. She was part of the Deputy President's delegation to Tunisia. I have adapted the inputs that the Deputy Minister was going to make to this honourable House and I present them on her behalf in the body of my Budget Vote speech. The Deputy Minister sends her regards to this honourable House.
