Hon Speaker, it is a pity that we have to start the proceedings in this way. I would like to refer you to Rule 14(1) of the Joint Rules of Parliament. This is a Joint Sitting of Parliament and should be open to the public. In terms of Rule 14(1) of the Joint Rules of Parliament: "Joint Sittings are open to the public, including the media." The media cannot do its work as long as the signal to do what they need to do is blocked. This has not happened in 20 years at Parliament. We were informed by some senior members of the ruling party that they are not aware of this, that the officials of Parliament are not aware of this. I am under the impression that maybe the executive may have something to do with this. This is the highest legislative body in this country. In terms of the Constitution, we cannot proceed unless we are an open society in terms of a media plan. [Applause.]
