• 13 Oct 2021 in National Assembly: same time, it is important that it is made clear that the purpose of the catchment areas is not limited to election. It also has to do with matters of administration to ensure that order prevails within the sector. One of the things that has killed the sugar-cane sector is lack of order, control and discipline.
