Mr R A P Trollip (ActionSA) to ask the President of the Republic:
(1) Whether, given that the Republic’s 42 Deputy Ministers cost the fiscus R287 million in salaries, R135 million in travel and millions more in VIP protection and housing, despite holding no executive authority and, as in the case surrounding the Minister of Police, unable even to act in his absence, the Cabinet intends to approve a Constitutional Amendment Bill to abolish the position of Deputy Ministers; if not,
(2) whether the position of Deputy Ministers will be retained as a multimillion Rand means of patronage that takes higher priority over the needs of the unemployed, the hungry and/or the hopeless; if not, what is the position in this regard; if so, what are the relevant details?
The Constitution affords all South Africans the right to see and hear what happens in Parliament.
For the last 7 years and for the benefit of subscribers and the community “My Africa” search for sequences that are newsworthy, interesting, funny etc. From a, sometimes long and boring, Parliament sitting allowing the community the opportunity to choose which sequence they find interesting and want to watch.
As a result “My Africa” adds significant value to those effected by the exceptionally high cost of Data and Pay TV.
Also “My Africa” allows the community to comment and contribute to discussions in a meaningful manner and take the stories and the debate forward.
However, we will NOT condone the following:
- Racism (including offensive comments based on ethnicity and nationality)
- Sexism
- Homophobia
- Religious intolerance
- Cyber bullying
- Hate speech
- Derogatory language
- Comments inciting violence.
We strive to make the YouTube community a safe and welcoming space for all.
