National Assembly speaker Nosiviwe Mapisa-Nqakula wants deputy president David Mabuza to ensure parliament is kept abreast of energy crisis interventions.
Parliamentary spokesperson Moloto Mothapo said on Saturday Mapisa-Nqakula wrote to Mabuza after receiving letters from DA, EFF and United Democratic Party leaders asking that she call back the house to debate and find solutions to increasing petrol prices and power cuts.
“This is despite the National Assembly having had two debates — in March and May — on the effects of the energy crisis on citizens and businesses,” said Mothapo.
