Thank you House Chairperson, my question Minister would be: How you possibly use sports and social cohesion when sporting codes such rugby and cricket are still dominated by whites who actively block the transformation of sports in this country? [Interjections.] [Applause.]
The MINISTER OF SPORT, ARTS AND CULTURE: Thank you very much Chair ... [Interjections.] and thanks hon member for your
question, what you said is true that transformation has not permeated through all the sporting codes but I can tell you that since the adoption ... Can you listen? ... of the charter, there are clear plans and the barometer to measure each and every step of transformation. Over and above that, national federations have been given targets and most of those targets are self- imposed from themselves. We see the graph of people going forward. We said that it is well and good to have a law and we also need to enforce that that there should be penalties when people can't even achieve the targets they have set for themselves. That process is continuing.
The Eminent Persons' Group's, EPG, task is particularly on that to monitor and evaluate. We get reports each and every year now and we are acting on them as we go forward. I can tell you, hon member, that with the plan in place under the watch of the EPG, there is ... as they say in the EPG ... light at the end of the transformation tunnel. Thank you.
