Deputy Chairperson, I conclude. The New Growth Path expects public investment to create 250 000 jobs a year in energy, transport, water and communications. I would also like to mention that Phase 2 of the Expanded Public Works Programme has just completed its second year.
Chairperson, I am not sure whether you have been made aware of the fact that the Deputy Minister is not participating, and I therefore prepared two speeches for this debate. But I do not want to take much of your time - I can touch on some of the things that remain when I respond. Thank you. [Applause.]
