Voorsitter, ek stel die volgende met kennisgewing voor:
Dat die Raad -
1) kennis neem dat die hulplyn van die President, mnr Jacob Zuma, geensins aan die verwagtinge wat die President by die kiesers geskep het, voldoen nie;
2) verder kennis neem dat die Premier van die Wes-Kaap, mev Helen Zille, in die provinsiale Parlement ges het dat sekere navrae vanaf die presidensile 17737-hulplyn na die bestaande provinsiale hulplyn by 0860 142 142 verwys word;
3) verder kennis neem dat die party binne 'n tydperk van 13 dae die presidensile hulplyn altesaam 42 keer gebel het sonder enige sukses; en 4) die presidensile hulplyn versoek om sy organisasie en administrasie in orde kry sodat dit nie net nog 'n produk is om voor te gee dat die ANC-regering omgee vir die kiesers nie. (Translation of Afrikaans draft resolution follows.)
[Mr J M G BEKKER: Chairperson, I hereby give notice as follows:
That the Council -
(1) notes that the helpline of the President, Mr Jacob Zuma, is in no way fulfilling the expectations that the President has created among the voters;
(2) further notes that the Premier of the Western Cape, Mrs Helen Zille, has said in the provincial legislature that certain queries are being transferred from the 17737 presidential helpline to the existing provincial helpline 0860 142 142;
(3) further notes that within a period of 13 days the party has called the presidential helpline 42 times in total, without any success; and
(4) request that the presidential helpline should get their organisation and administration in order, so that this does not become merely another product to pretend that the ANC Government cares about the voters.]
