Text

Thank you very much, Mr Speaker. We have worked closely together, and I hold you in high esteem. I thank the Minister for agreeing to look into the matter. I was at the funeral on Sunday, and the family are devastated by their loss. The lady was going to get her hair done and was killed on that main road. The traffic travels quite fast on that road, and it is a very busy road. It is important that we all realise the seriousness of the matter.
