Thank you very much, Chief Whip. If you speak like that, then Jazz is right behind you. We need to call the izimbizo so that every resident may come forward with his or her problem. That will happen if we deal with this problem as a whole instead of in drips and drabs.
There's something I want to say about this self-glorifying company called Empowerdex that oversees the performance of municipalities. It claims that the City of Cape Town is doing quite well. I have not witnessed that. The only thing I have heard, on which I still have to call all South African metropolitan municipalities to a discussion, is that the budget of this particular metropolitan municipality caters only for the middle-class society, the bourgeoisie, leaving the poorest of the poor with absolutely nothing.
That means we will make an intervention in this municipality. There is no municipality here in South Africa that will be spared. We want uniformity in all the municipalities. It is not true that the City of Cape Town is doing well, and I do not concur with that. What I have seen so far confirms that.
In the same breath, they say eThekwini Municipality is underperforming. That is not true. EThekwini Municipality is doing very well compared to other municipalities. Thank you, Deputy Chair.]
