    "content": "Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, the third imperative is that of satisfying public expectation. The public has very high expectation of the Tenth Parliament. They have expectations to see a new Constitution emerge out of this Chamber. They have expectations to see far-reaching statutory, institutional and policy reforms enacted by this House. These expectations will only be fulfilled if the left hand side of the Speaker functions as effectively as the right hand side. These reforms can only be pursued and achieved if this House is balanced in its operations. That balance can only come if we have a formal Official Opposition. Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, the final imperative is the imperative of innovation and history. History has conspired to place us in a moment, where we can make and re-make history. Mr. Mandela would take tell South Africans that sometimes it falls on a generation to be great. You can choose to be that great generation!"
