Speaker, hon Deputy President, I'm sure you will agree with me that to achieve a developmental state, you need efficient and qualified public servants. I know of an incident in a Seta in East London where the CEO of that Seta forged all his qualifications. I reported it, he came to his office with the police and suspended a number of employees.
As one of the steps you are going to try and put into place, will you consider doing a verification of qualifications of all senior managers in departments? I ask this as the lack of skills has become an excuse for inefficiency, but then we appoint people without the right qualifications. I will also suggest that that is one of the steps that must be taken to make sure that we don't take people without the necessary qualifications to do the job.
