Cape Town - The DA hopes to have its motion of no confidence in President Jacob Zuma debated before the end of the parliamentary term in late March, but the ANC does not believe the matter is urgent.
Democratic Alliance Chief Whip John Steenhuisen, who tabled the motion 40 minutes after AgangSA scuppered such a debate on Tuesday, said: "We think a month is a reasonable time, we would like it to happen before Parliament rises."
He said National Assembly Speaker Baleka Mbete had indicated it would be discussed at next Thursday's meeting of the Assembly programming committee, and said he expected a date could be set then.
