The latest attempt to focus attention on the ministerial housing is a barefaced move to embarrass Government and the Executive.

The Government had indicated in 2009 that it had planned to buy and upgrade housing for Ministers, Members of Parliament and top government officials.

At the time an amount of R150-million had been earmarked as planned expenditure on ministerial housing in line with Government’s budgetary and supply chain management process.

Michael Spicer has been at the helm of Business Leadership South Africa (BLSA), for seven years. He has had ample time to make a meaningful contribution to the transformation of business in South Africa.  However, business in South Africa still remains largely fractured and divided along racial lines, with black business largely excluded and marginalised.

Minister of Transport, Sibusiso Ndebele

A very good morning to you all, and welcome to this media briefing on the Infrastructure Development Cluster (IDC).

The work of the IDC emanates from Outcome 6: An Efficient, Competitive and Responsive Economic Infrastructure Network.

The Sisulu family would like to express its sincerest gratitude for the support, words of comfort, kind gestures, condolence messages, flowers and tributes that carried us during the trying time following the passing of our beloved mother, MaSisulu.

The weight of our loss was lessened as we realised that it was shared by so many. It created for us all a fellowship of the sorrowful; a bond to lighten our burden.
