Due to the fault with the electronic voting system earlier on, we will now vote on the second order of the day. The question before the House is: The approval of recommendation for appointment of Adv Sizani, Mrs C Nzimande and Mrs R Issel to serve on the Public Service Commission. Are all members in their allocated seats? The process of recording support will now commence. [Interjections.]
The system is still not working. We will have to go to manual voting. Contrary to when we vote electronically, the names of members will not appear on the minutes of proceedings of the House. Only the total number of members for or against the question will be recorded.
Order, hon members! The question before the House is: The Approval of the Recommendation for Appointment of Adv R K Sizani, Mrs C Nzimande and Mrs R Issel to serve on the Public Service Commission? The process of manual voting can now commence.
Order! The result of the manual vote is: we are 201 in the House. There are no "no" votes and no abstentions. Therefore the recommendations are agreed to in terms of section 196(8)(a) of the Constitution.
