Madam Deputy Speaker, I will present the report, and the rest I will leave to those who like to argue a great deal!
My duty is to present the report, but I must start by saying that the Minister is in Polokwane, addressing the national conference of community broadcasters, and the Deputy Minister is preparing for her wedding this coming weekend. So, clearly, I must account for where they are, because I know where they are.
On 7 May the Portfolio Committee on Communications had referred to it a request to consider the appointment of one board member in the SABC, after Mr Clifford Motsepe had resigned as a result of his appointment as an MEC in Limpopo. We advertised the vacancy and received 38 nominations. As a committee we shortlisted six names. [Interjections.]
