Chairperson, I hereby give notice that on the next sitting day of the House I shall move on behalf of Cope:
That the Council -
1) notes the post-mortem revelation of the four Mmupele children in Verdwaal, Lichtenburg in the North West;
2) debates the grinding poverty that the farm communities of Verdwaal, Itsoseng, just outside Lichtenburg are confronted with;
3) notes that the revelations complement the SA Child Gauge 2010-2011 report showing that almost 3 million of the country's 18,6 million children go to bed hungry; and
4) debates the need for the Minister of Social Development to institute an inquiry into Sassa's declaration of having R457 million in savings while there are children dying of hunger because they are unable to access child support grants.
