President Cyril Ramaphosa appears before the National Assembly for an oral question-and-answer session October 17, 2024.
Parliament is back in full swing this week, after its winter constituency period. On Tuesday, President Cyril Ramaphosa will answer oral questions in the National Assembly.
Ministers from the economic cluster will follow suit on Wednesday. There are several committee sittings scheduled, but among others, the committee on Communications and Digital Technologies will receive a presentation from the department on its state of readiness for digital switch-over and the update on the implementation of Broadcast Digital Migration.
The 7th legislature adopted a rotational approach to its parliamentary programme, structuring its work into three distinct components: committee oversight, constituency work and plenary sittings. This structure allows members to focus on each of Parliament’s core functions, thereby enhancing the effectiveness and impact of parliamentary work.
Other items include a media briefing of the chairpersons of the Economic Services Cluster oversight committees of Parliament, consideration of the Immigration Bill by the NA, debate on the Local Government week in the National Council of Provinces (NCOP) and oral question-and-answer sessions
Chairpersons of the National Assembly and National Council of Provinces Economics Cluster oversight committees will brief the media on Monday, 8 September, as part of the 7th Parliament’s committee cluster media engagement programme.
