Deputy Chairperson, I give notice on behalf of Cope that at the next sitting of the Council I shall move:
That the Council -
1) notes the startling and endless inability of the government to implement the Public Finance Management Act with the rigour and force that it deserves;
2) further notes the inexplicable delay by National Treasury in expeditiously helping the Gauteng province to staunch huge leakages and looting in the departments of health and social development by putting these services under enormous pressure;
3) notes that the Special Investigating Unit is being asked to investigate fraud in the Gauteng department of health, estimated at R1 billion; and
4) debates whether the time has come to substantially amend the Public Finance Management Act in order to prevent South Africa, under the ANC government, from totally bankrupting South Africa and putting our country where Greece is today.
