Hon Chairperson, I thank the hon member very much. Alignment is an ongoing process. When we align with the NDP, we are not talking about the Migdett process only, because the Migdett process is one element of trying to have stakeholders talk about the issues around this matter, both positive and negative. So alignment, generally, with the policies is an ongoing process.
In regard to job creation, I am not able to give you the statistics now, but our daily interventions and so on are to attract investment to ensure that jobs are created.
We have rolled this out to you, hon members. We have said that part of the expansion in the mining industry is the new mines that are coming on stream. To give you one example, of a possible 10 000 jobs that will be coming on stream in the near future, we have one of the biggest zinc deposits in the Northern Cape that will be ramping up in 2015. So, lots of jobs will be created there.
We have also outlined to Parliament a beneficiation strategy that will ensure that we not only export mineral resources in their raw form from this country, but that we add value. Those are job spinners that are coming, and work is happening as we speak.
So, I can assure you of this. While I cannot give you the statistics for sure now in regard to how many jobs will be created, but I can say, you can rest assured that we are marching forward in the mining industry. Thank you. [Applause.]
