Responses to Oral Questions in the National Assembly, Parliament of the Republic of South Africa

We have outlined 6 principles that must apply when entering into a coalition government. All of these will be deliberated on at the Dialogue on coalisions that we will host soon.

1. putting the people first by making them the tenants of our value system, in the formation of governments. In the spirit of Batho Pele, the measurement of the performance of coalitions must be about what we have done to improve the lives of the people for the better.

2. coalition governments must be committed to combating poverty and deprivation as well as building a growing and inclusive economy and must report regularly, by providing evidence on poverty reduction, growing the economy, and including the majority in the mainstream economy.

3. coalition governments must contribute toward building a prosperous society in which people have access to land for productive purposes and are meaningfully participating in the economy.

4. Coalition governments must be committed to building a non-racial, non-sexist, democratic, united and prosperous society.

5. a coalition government should be bound together by a commitment to Good Governance, with no tolerance for corruption!

6. the party that has won the largest votes should be allowed to lead the coalition and the executive positions should be allocated proportional to the votes obtained by the coalition partners.
