On behalf of Cope I hereby give notice that at the next sitting of the House I shall move: That the Council -
1) notes the incident involving Jon Qwelane, the SA Ambassador to Uganda, who was found guilty this morning in a court of hate speech against gay and lesbian people, a minority group protected by law in this country;
2) further notes the embarrassment to the country for being represented by such a person; and
3) insists that the government reconsider the secondment of such kinds of dignitaries to represent the country.
