House Chair, contrary to the horror stories from, and the abuse of parliamentary privilege by, the DA over the past two weeks, including by its leader in this House, 66 000 households in the Amathole District Municipality in the Eastern Cape will, by the end of June this year, be the proud owners of VIP toilet facilities. [Interjections.] Indeed, this is a restoration of their dignity.
This was made possible by the partnership between the Development Bank of Southern Africa, DBSA, and the Siyenza Group. The Siyenza Group, a company with over 10 years' experience in the sanitation sector, is owned by Bongani Mpeluza and it has thus far put up over 10 000 toilets that have been verified and claimed for. [Interjections.] Another 10 000 will be verified in the coming week. This, then, refutes the allegations made by the DA that this company has been paid for not doing anything. [Interjections.]
Secondly, the DA has made the claim that the son-in-law of the President, Lonwabo Sambudla, Mrs Mantashe and Boitumelo Itholeng, the son of our Minister of Small Business Development, are the owners of this company. [Interjections.] That is untrue. [Time expired.]
