Madam Speaker, the ANC commends the initiatives by the ANC MP, hon Lumka Yengeni, who has through her Dunoon constituency office arranged the meeting between the community, leadership of Dunoon and representatives of the Milnerton police station. The objective of the meeting was to avoid any possibility of attacks against foreign nationals by communicating messages that promote peace and community cohesion. The meeting will be followed by a general meeting of all members of the Dunoon community, including foreign nationals, church leaders and members of the South African Police Service today at Sophakhama Primary School at 18h00.
We welcome the undertakings by the Milnerton police station commander, Superintendent Van Wyk, that regular patrols will be reinforced in pursuit of the objectives of building safer communities. We wish to congratulate Milnerton police station, in particular, Captain Nqatha and Superintendent Hobana who are deployed in the area on a full-time basis, for the co- operation they have shown to the people of Dunoon. I thank you.
