Chairperson, I move without notice:
That the Council -
1) notes that the Department of Health has budgeted R14 million to build a 40-bed multidrug-resistant, MDR, unit for TB patients and establish a comprehensive support system that will ensure the support of community-based management of the spread of multidrug- resistant TB; and
2) takes this opportunity to welcome the province's commitment to improving the province's TB cure rate and encourages communities not to default on their medication until the completion of their treatment period.
Motion agreed to in accordance with section 65 of the Constitution.
