Hon Chairperson, I think this is somewhat of a different issue altogether that doesn't arise out of this. Safe to say that one of the terms of reference of the review of the funding formula is actually to look at the issue of languages, especially the funding and support of African languages in the context where the teaching of some of the African languages in our universities is actually being threatened with closure, like IsiNdebele. At the moment there is only one department in the whole country with very few students. We are looking at how to save and strengthen that department.
By the way, our language policy is very clear. No institution should use language to discriminate and none should be allowed to use the issue of a single language in order to exclude people who actually do not speak that language. Universities in South Africa do not belong to language groups; they belong to the South African people as a whole. Thank you. [Applause.]
