The National Assembly has shelved various motions that would see members elected to serve in various bodies.
These include motions for members who would serve on the Judicial Service Commission, the SADC Parliamentary Forum and the election of three house chairpersons.
The was the first sitting of the National Assembly since the swearing in of members and the business of the day was the filling of positions in internal and external Parliamentary structures. However, it was not to be, as three motions were shelved for political consultations.
"The reason for this withdrawal Madam Speaker is to allow for further consultation on the matters that need to be cleared out on the three motions above," says ANC Chief Whip Mdumiseni Ntuli.
But the MK Party was not impressed.
