Speaker and hon President, the reason why we are suggesting that these issues must be included in that debate, is that normally the response by the ANC, in the case of Chancellor House where they are benefiting directly from the increase in electricity prices, is that it is legal.
The other response is that when the Minister benefits from state enterprises, it's legal; when Ministers overspend on accommodation and cars, it's legal.
Now, let me tell you why it is not illegal. It is because the ANC refuses to live up to its promise to the High Court in Cape Town five years ago, when it said it would enact legislation that would regulate party-political funding. The ANC also refuses to implement its own Polokwane resolution, Mr President. The ANC also refuses to support an ID motion that has been before this Parliament for almost two years now.
Now, your debate on morality, Mr President, will be stillborn if we continue to have one set of ethics and morals for political leaders and another set for the rest of South Africa. My question is: Are you prepared to instruct the ANC to enact legislation that will make all of this dubious behaviour illegal? Thank you. [Applause.]
