Chair, I hereby give notice on behalf of Cope that at the next sitting of the Council I shall move:
That the Council -
1) notes that the MEC for police in the Western Cape, Mr Dan Plato, has clearly lost the battle against gangsterism in the Western Cape;
2) debates the lack of fresh ideas and strong leadership shown in tackling gangsterism in the Western Cape;
3) also debates the failure of Mr Plato to address this issue since taking office; and
4) debates the urgent need for the national Minister of Police to intervene by implementing a special investigation unit to deal with this rising concern.
