The Legislature is clearly feeling a little chastened about the amount of money being spent on revamping the debating chamber - the latest figure puts the cost at some R30 million.
Just to show what we can expect, one ANC speaker provided a screen with his speech on it saying that this is what would be available in the revamped legislature. Sounds a bit expensive - R30 million for a screen and a linked computer.
Only problem was at the Good News centre the screen was put in such a position that the opposition could hardly see it and the public will all have stiff necks from craning to see.
Meanwhile, the Pillay Commission report will simply not go away.
The Office of the Premier was supposed to have submitted the report to the Legislature by the end of March in terms of an earlier resolution but didn’t. Now it has been given to July 3 and probably won’t release it by then either.
Smart money is on the Public Service Accountability Monitor to obtain it through the Promotion of Access to Information Act.
