Chairperson, CDWs are not politicians but are what we refer to as special cadres of public servants. They are there and know that they report to structures in the local government. There is no doubt about that. You might have listened to one input, but we have been to all provinces in the programme of strengthening the role of CDWs.
We need to understand that in an environment where there are CDWs working in an area where there are also ward committees, they complement one another, clearly and perfectly so. We need to understand that in some instances it might well be that in your area, hon member, you might have a councillor who feels threatened or a CDW who does not feel welcome. But the general picture about the work of our CDWs is to provide mobile services to the people - door to door - which of course we are improving in terms of providing them with the necessary resources. That is what they are meant to do.
There may be minor challenges. But, like I have indicated, those are issues that we are addressing. In any situation where there is change, you are bound to go down and explain. That is exactly what we are doing to strengthen the programme of CDWs. Thank you very much.
