Temporary Deputy Speaker, if you look at the principle of equity and discrimination, I think we must commend the fact that there have been efforts towards the empowerment of women, youth and persons with disabilities. However, I would have appreciated if the President had also spoken in concrete terms on how many women, youth and persons with disabilities have benefitted from preferential procurement which is now a Government policy. I think that would have been quite interesting."}
