Cape Town - Western Cape police could not answer questions about action taken during the State of the Nation address as it was a national operation, provincial commissioner Arno Lamoer said in Cape Town on Wednesday.
"It is a national event. It is a national operation. There are different role players in that," Lamoer told the chairperson of the provincial standing committee on community safety, Mireille Wenger.
The committee had called him in to get insight and clarification on what police did in the parliamentary precinct during President Jacob Zuma's State of the Nation speech on 12 February.
