So, we now see that the Energy Minister, Kgosientsho Ramokgopa, has delayed the issuing of the international notice for countries to show interest in South Africa's new nuclear build .
He has removed the Government Gazette notice of the intention to proceed, so as to provide him with more time for public participation, as demanded by the Democratic Alliance and their anti-nuclear activist collaborators .
Of course, there is absolutely no doubt that the public participation process should be done correctly, and comprehensively .
But it is also absolutely essential that the same process should be followed for wind and solar projects.
