“I would have expected that the Minister is here, that’s why we are meeting today. This ambush of her not pitching now, I want to say first of all it is not acceptable. That’s just the bottom line because, firstly, we are meeting with the Inter-Ministerial Task Team. She is not the only one there. There could have been other Ministers of the Task Team who are delegated to have come here.
