Madam, I apologise for the disrespect, Chairperson of the NCOP. May I address you, Madam? Thank you very much for the opportunity. Madam Chairperson, the Powers, Privileges and Immunities Act indeed confers powers on you in that regard, but no Act passed by Parliament can supersede the Constitution. I would like to refer you, if I may, to section 199(7) of the Constitution and I would like to read from it, Madam Chair:
Neither the security services, nor any of their members, may, in the performance of their functions -
a) prejudice a political party interest that is legitimate in terms of the Constitution; or
b) further, in a partisan manner, any interest of a political party.
Madam Chairperson, hon Maimane asked a question. He wanted to establish from you which of those were SAPS members. What concerns me more, Madam Chairperson, with due respect, is that there were members with firearms who entered the sacrosanct Chamber of Parliament while it was in session. Now I submit to you, Madam Chairperson, that this is not a state of affairs. We don't meet bad behaviour with bad behaviour. Now, I submit to you that the section that you have invoked is unconstitutional and incorrect. I would ask you to make a ruling on it.
