To our guests in the gallery and also the staff, welcome to the sitting today.

Madam Speaker, Premier, Cabinet colleagues, members of this House, the Head of Department and the Department of Agriculture, the citizens of this province: It is impossible to stand here today and address you on the state of agriculture in the province and not mention the drought. Madam Speaker, I know you have not seen me here in a jacket of late, so if you do not mind, I am going to take my jacket off because, as this House knows, from 1 February or Level 6B water restrictions, I have been wearing jeans and a T-shirt to work for three days in a row before I wash them.

  • Representation of South African Women in the Public Sphere
    REPRESENTATION OF SOUTH AFRICAN WOMEN IN THE PUBLIC SPHERE PREPARED BY ADITI HUNMA, RESEARCH ASSISTANT 1 REPRESENTATION OF SOUTH AFRICAN WOMEN IN THE PUBLIC SPHERE METHODOLOGY The aim of this report is to explore how South African women are (re)presented by the media as they engage in the public sphere. It looks at women in three different fields namely, politics, business and art, analysing at the onset the way they argue, that is, as rhetorical agents. It ihen proceeds to assess how these women's gender is perceived to enhance or be detrimental to their capacity to deliver. In the process, the report comes to belie and confront various myths that still persist and taint women's image in the public arena. In the realm of politics, I will be analysing Cape Town Mayor and Head of DA, Helen Zille. In the corporate world, I will be looking at Bulelwa Qupe, who owns the Ezabantu, long-line Hake fishing company, and in the Arts, I will be looking at articles published on Nadine Gordimer, the author who bagged the Nobel Literature Prize less than two decades back. Data for this purpose was compiled from various websites, namely SABCNews.com, Mail and Guardian, News24, IOL and a few blog sites. It was then perused, sorted and labelled. Common topos were extracted and portions dealing with the (re)presentation of women were summarised prior to the actual write up. In the course of the research, I realised that the framing of events had a momentous bearing on the way the women came to be appear and so, I paid close attention to titles, captions and emboldened writings.

Before we proceed I would like to make some comments about the logistical arrangements. Because of the unavailability of our chamber in 7 Wale Street, this chamber, Good Hope Sub-council Chambers here at 44 Wale Street will be used temporarily for House sittings from today until further notice. Please also note that in compliance with the Powers, Privileges and Immunities of Parliaments and Provincial Legislatures Act, 2004, this chamber, the gallery, the lobbies, and adjacent passage and ablution facilities as well as the committee room on the 12th floor will be regarded as the 2 precinct of the Provincial Parliament. In terms of the audio controls, to enable a member to talk, the member should push the talk button on the microphone speaker unit fitted on the desk. There is one unit for every two to three members to share. The member speaking need not move to a microphone. The system is strong enough to pick up sound from your allocated seat. Members seated in close proximity to a speaker must therefore be aware that any loud conversation may interfere with the recording of the speaker on the floor. In order to select your language of choice, when it comes to interpreting please press the channel button on your wireless receiver to select the correct channel.
