Deputy Speaker, on behalf of Cope, I move without notice:
That the House -
1) notes the tragic death of four pupils in Soweto last week, which was as a result of a reckless and undesirable race by our own South African hip hop star, Molemo Maarohanye, popularly known as "Jub Jub";
2) conveys its heartfelt condolences to the families of the deceased and;
3) ensures that measures will be put in place so that the South African public is made aware of our commitment as the Parliament of South Africa to making sure that justice is done and prevails in this matter.
I think that is a notice of motion and not a motion itself, is it not?
Madam Deputy Speaker, we keep coming back to the same old problem. Certainly, the DA was not given a copy of that motion without notice. It is very difficult for us to actually comment now as to whether we support it or not. And I would prefer perhaps for that motion to be withdrawn.
There is a practice that motions go to the Chief Whips beforehand. That is why I am asking whether it is a notice of motion that is coming. Is that the case?
Deputy Speaker, I will take it up with the relevant member. Thank you.
Hon Kilian, are you withdrawing the motion? Is that what you are saying?
Deputy Speaker, it seems to be a notice of motion, but it should have been circulated before, so we'll withdraw it for now, yes. Thank you.
