Yet, in the 2014-15 financial year the NYDA will spend roughly only 10% of its grant on its economic participation programme and roughly only 10% of its grant on its Education and Skills Development programme. Meanwhile, hon Manamela is - to quote him on the Employment Tax Incentive Act - "firmly opposed to the youth wage subsidy".
If we are to use the NDP as our roadmap, we should channel the NYDA's budget into the youth wage subsidy, structured youth development programmes and bursaries for educational opportunities. This would be a much better use of resources.
We should pass laws that promote opportunities, growth and jobs. If we don't - if we choose the national democratic revolution - we will be destined for more policy incoherence, more poverty and more unemployment. I thank you. [Applause.]
