Chairperson, I agree with the hon member that officials must do their jobs, but who is doing the monitoring? We must monitor the municipalities and make the authorities work. It is not the municipalities' issue, it is ours as Members of Parliament and as members of communities.
It is also not a question of saying that after a period of nine years you may sell the house. We say you must give that house back to government, so that government can give it to another person. Because if we say sell the house and end there, then the whole backlog is not going to be addressed.
If people have enough after eight or nine years, the first buyer should be government so that at the end of the day we put the next person on the list into that house. In fact, we want to do away with the sale of houses so that, at the end of the day, if you want to sell the house you don't deserve to get money from government in any case.
Ours is to check the selling of houses. We are busy investigating that, and we are going to blacklist anybody who is defrauding government, whether you are a beneficiary or a contractor. Whoever defrauds government, the committees must know who those people are. Thank you.
