National Assembly Speaker Baleka Mbete has declined the DA's request to reconvene parliament so that it can establish an ad hoc committee to deal with the energy crisis
DA chief whip John Steenhuisen wrote to Mbete on Friday‚ just two days after the National Assembly ended its work to allow MPs to focus on election campaigns.
He proposed that the ad hoc committee be made up of MPs from the National Assembly's portfolio committees on energy‚ public enterprises and trade and industry. On Monday morning‚ DA leader Mmusi Maimane‚ addressing journalists at the party's headquarters in Johannesburg‚ said the Eskom crisis was no longer the baby of the ANC-led government‚ but that of the entire country.
