Premier laughs off Water Commission of Inquiry
1 October 2014
Gauteng Premier David Makhura literally laughed off the DA's request for a commission of inquiry into the recent water crisis in the province.
During my member statement yesterday in the Gauteng Legislature, Makhura laughed out loud when the request for a commission of inquiry was made.
The water crisis has the potential of having a greater economic impact on Gauteng than E-tolls - which is currently subject to a review panel initiated by the premier.
It is not only the direct economic impact resulting from the water crisis that must be taken into consideration but also future consequences.
