The Chairperson welcome members of the Committee .She said the main purpose of
the meeting was to update members about the progress made with regard to the
advert on nomination of persons to fill vacancies on the commission on gender
equality. The Committee noted the advert only appeared to one newspaper. She
said the advert was supposed to be on newspapers before the 27th of
May 2006 to enable the Committee to prepare shortlisting. She felt that a proof
that states advert is included on newspapers was required.
Discussion
Ms M Morutoa (ANC) express concerns over the interaction between media and
the Department. She asked how did they prove that the advert was on the paper.
She felt the possibility that newspapers might had not had enough space to put
the advert on
Mr B Kali (Secretary) felt that the newspapers usually look the deadlines of
the advert the possibility was they might had missed the deadline, and secondly
when they issue advert, they sent invoice together with a copy of the
newspaper.
The Chairperson said recommended that she would make a follow-up on the matter.
Mr P Mathebe (ANC) asked why the advert had not been placed on newspaper during
the week.
Ms Morutoa felt the advert should be placed in most newspapers especially
community newspaper as to afford rural people opportunity to respond to it.
The Chairperson felt since there were many newspaper in the country, it would
be too expensive for the department to consider all of them but she would
rather discuss the matter with the department to ascertain how many newspaper
would the department be afforded to pay.
