Hon members, before we proceed to decide on the Votes and Schedule to the Appropriation Bill, I have to inform you that I have received proposed amendments to the Appropriation Bill from the Minister of Finance. The amendments are printed in the name of the Minister on today's Order Paper. The amendments are meant to effect technical corrections to the Bill, in terms of section 14 of the Money Bills Amendment Procedure and Related Matters Act, Act 9 of 2009, by creating new Votes without appropriation for new departments and correcting departmental names. I now recognise the hon Minister of Finance. [Applause.]
