Hon Speaker, during the state of the nation address in 2009, Mr President, you promised the poor and the most vulnerable that half a million jobs would be created for them by the end of the year. The Framework Agreement stands on two main pillars: To protect and to expand decent work.
Why then were a million jobs lost during the same period and why, even as we speak today, was intervention not done? Are your Ministers failing you or perhaps not giving you reports as to whether they have done what you have actually asked them to do, Mr President? [Applause.]
