Deputy president Paul Mashatile has poured cold water on concerns that the already drafted government’s bill on coalitions renders the national dialogue on coalitions futile.
Tau had revealed that his department had a draft bill on coalitions and had intended on pushing it through but that process was paused to allow Mashatile’s dialogue to proceed.
In fact, Mashatile argued, the ire raised by parties was unfair as the DA has its own bills on the same matter.Same as the DA, I said to them the issues that you raise in your bill bring them here because once we have a framework that is agreed to by everybody then that lays the basis for legislation,” said Mashatile.
His dialogue, Mashatile said, would go a long way in considering all proposals on the table and eventually reach a compromise on what framework to put in place.
