Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. We need to support the allocation to the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC). EACC plays a critical role in the fight against corruption.

Let me make it very clear that this was approved by the National Treasury. The Chairman of the Budget and Appropriations Committee can confirm that position. That is what we are proposing.
