Hon Chairperson, hon members, I join my hon Minister, Fikile Mbalula, in expressing our gratitude and thanks to President Zuma and the ruling party, the ANC, for deploying us to the same positions. It is good to be in the same team, Minister, and we are going to move this thing forward.
Chairperson, may I, right at the beginning, just say that there are some of the newer members in the House, and that if you have got nothing to say, please don't say it here ... [Laughter.] ... because it is recorded. And you, madam, have not learnt anything in five years! So, be quiet, because you may learn something now. [Laughter.]
Hon members, the Minister has elaborated on some of our priorities for the next five years ... [Interjections.] ... namely, school sports, club development, community sports facilities and transformation ... [Interjections.]
