House Chairperson, I would like to thank the hon Mdaka from the ANC for asking this question, totally in line with the DA's policy. We welcome this question. We also welcome the Minister's reply, because the DA wants provinces to be capacitated. We don't want the centralised approach that we had in the past from the ANC.
Hon Minister, the Western Cape will welcome any proper monitoring and support, because we are not afraid of it. We will work with you, and I am sure that will happen.
I would like to ask the hon Minister the following question: Don't you think we would have had fewer service delivery protests if the provincial departments were properly capacitated in the past?
