DA calls for the release the new Minister of Electricity’s performance agreement

The necessity of a publicly available performance agreement for Ramokgopa is further motivated by the fact that there is currently no parliamentary committee to which he is directly accountable to. As part of filling this accountability gap, the DA will soon be tabling a resolution in Parliament calling for the establishment of an ad hoc committee to oversee the work of the new Minister of Electricity. The ad hoc committee will be constituted by select Members of Parliament who currently serve on the Public Enterprises and Energy committees.

Thoughts for a time of uncertainty

South Africa remains a free society. It has a large economy with a resilient business community, a hardy agricultural sector and a sophisticated infrastructure. It has an uncowed civil society, a diverse and pretty much unhindered political landscape, a free media and independent courts. It has avoided, and credit to the government here, the temptations to reckless fiscal and monetary action. South Africa remains – for the moment – Africa’s premier modern state. None of these should be taken for granted – indeed, threats to each of them loom large and clear – but they are assets of immeasurable value and the machinery of the country’s reconstruction.

DA welcomes Gauteng High Court interdict of EFF national shutdown violence

The DA remains firmly committed to the principle of the rule of law to ensure that the rights of all South Africans are upheld and protected. Today’s judgement is a victory for law and order, and a victory for all South Africans who aspire to live in a country where violence, terrorism, and vigilantism are left, once and for all, in the halls of history.
