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 dire effect a mineral export tax will have on the economy, the industry and future investment inflows into the mining sector;
2) debates the need to address constraints faced by manufacturers in order to promote local mineral processing; and
3) debates the need for government to create an environment conducive to growth in the mining sector and to ensure that South Africa does not miss out on yet another commodity boom because of bureaucracy.
