Question No 20
Mr R A Lees (DA-KZN) to ask the Deputy President:
Whether the Moral Regeneration Movement (MRM) has held any meetings during the period 1 January 2009 up to the latest specified date for which information is available; if not, why not; if so, (a) with whom were the meetings held, (b) what subjects were covered in the meetings, (c) what (i) decisions and (ii) recommendations were made at such meetings and (d) who attended the meetings?
Reply:
Honourable members, the Moral Regeneration Movement (MRM), the section 21 organisation has held numerous management and board meetings. The organisation has held meetings with external stakeholders both in government and with non-state actors.
The subjects covered varied from organisational matters dealt with at management and board meetings to meetings with external stakeholders that naturally focused on strategic and programmatic matters or those matters that relate to the successful implementation of the strategic priorities of the organisation.
If honourable members are interested, I can request the MRM to supply its schedule of meetings.
These details however are not part of my work as patron of MRM. Some of the details can also be obtained from the Department of Arts and Culture which is the department overseeing the work of MRM.
I thank you.
