Thank you, Deputy Speaker. Mr President, the paper of Mr Mboweni speaks about a continuation with Independent Power producers, IPPs, which have been a big problem financially to Eskom, privatisation of water and
irrigation services, but most importantly, the paper's perspective on spectrum allocation.
We have a big problem with the telecoms of a duopoly where Vodacom and MTN owned about 71% of the market share. There is no detail but it looks like the government's attitude is towards auctioning high demand spectrum. It you auction, you are selling. How will you break the duopoly? If you want to break the duopoly and you are selling the spectrum, the obvious reality is that the big players have more money and therefore, there won't be competition. Data prises won't go down as a result, despite the fact that they keep promising as it were that that allocated spectrum will help the end user to have much more relieve in relation to data prises, but you will never have competition with that road. What exactly is the government's position and in particular with breaking the duopoly of MTN and Vodacom.
