Deputy Speaker, let me start by stating quite clearly and unequivocally that the FF Plus is against any form of discrimination against women. We can never support that and we believe in absolute equality between men and women, as a point of departure. I think everybody in this House believes in that.

However, the Minister started by telling us that this is another good story to tell. We are getting tired of all the so-called good stories, because the problem, and it goes beyond this Bill, is that the ANC has had a very sad and bad story to tell since 1994. The reason for that is the following. The ANC has failed to unlock the enormous potential in South Africa, in all the people of this country, men and women, from all creeds, colours and all the different groups. They have not succeeded in getting that energy going to make this country a better place, and now they are trying all kinds of things to improve South Africa.

Let's get to this Bill. The hon chairperson of the committee, the hon Ramodike, basically said that this Bill would now help to make it possible to teach a boy child to respect women and girls. You don't need legislation to teach children the basics of life.
