Speaker / Adjunk-Speaker,
Minister Gordhan het ‘n reuse werk wat voorlê om die departement reg te ruk. Om die tentakels van alle staatskapers af te sny is nie ‘n maklike taak nie. Die tentakels van ‘n seekat kan nog lank bly klou nadat die kop afgesny is. Ons is wel... Lees verder
Speaker / Adjunk-Speaker,
Die minister moet kennis neem dat haar departement en provinsiale filiale is besig om die land in sy geheel, maar veral die kinders, te faal. Daar is sedert 1994 deur die ANC op ons leerders geëksperimenteer met verskillende opleidings-filosofieë, soos... Lees verder
Die begrotingswetsontwerp vir die 2018/19 finansiële jaar se vertrekpunt is slegs korttermyn politieke oorlewing vir die ANC. Geen departement se toewysing spreek werklik die probleme van Suid-Afrika aan nie.
Tydens die afgelope paar weke se begrotingsposdebatte het die ANC herhaaldelik die... Lees verder
Voorsitter en Minister,
Minister, this portfolio is a difficult one and I do not envy your job. Transport establish the arteries of the country’s economy and social fabric. One of the main challenges of South Africans is answering the daily questions of: how do I get to work and back home,... Lees verder

Chairperson, Minister and Committee Chairperson Fubbs,
This Committee’s oversight work is of the highest importance to ensure that the country’s economy grows, and that sustainable employment is created. So far, the Department has been able to ensure some sectors from shedding jobs but ... Lees verder
Chairperson and Minister
Minister, it is indeed difficult to adjudicate the budget allocation and work of this Department in isolation of other Departments that should have been placed within one Ministry and Department. Those other Departments are Trade and Industry, Small Business and even... Lees verder
Voorsitter,
Given the unfortunate state capture years we have experienced, this debate must be framed within the rhetoric of Mr. Dondo Mogojane, the Director-General of Treasury, who stated yesterday as follows: “We have to ensure that we take a stand. We are not a failed state, but we are... Lees verder
Geagte voorsitter en minister,
Minister, last year I started off to say that every year feels like Déjà Vu and it seems it is the case again. The more time changes, the more things stay the same, except that I may add that the entropy of the basic education system is increasing. In... Lees verder
