Parliament

00.02.06 CU FLAG IN WIND
00.02.21 BUTHELEZI & PARTY WALKING
00.03.22 BUTHELEZI PRESSER: "...unanimouslyì
decided to suspend its active participation inì
parliament...announcement became necessaryì
following the breach of the agreement ofì
reconciliation and peace [signed 19 April 1994]
00.03.49 "With respect to the Intern mediationì
which was suppose to be resumed asap afterì
elections."
00.03.57 "It was because of the promise of Internì
mediation that the IFP constituency allowed & gaveì
a mandate to its leadership to enter the electionsì
& to take seats in the Houses of Parliament..."
00.04.17 WITH THIS BREACH OF AGREEMENT...MANDATEì
"that the parliamentarians have received hasì
exhausted its political viability. In other wordsì
we cannot morally stay here if there's this breachì
of faith..."
00.04.41 "We are in a situation of a totalì
deadlock..."
00.07.14 CUTAWAY PRESS
00.07.38 "...it was Mr Meyer in fact who wasì
responsible for the aborting of the first effortì
to mediate. It was he who insisted on reopeingì
terms of reference so I think that even theirì
statements have not been constructive..."

00.11.07 "It isn't as if we've totally withdrawnì
We are still trying even in the circumstancesì
which are very tenuous to work together"
00.15.15 CUTAWAYS PRESS
00.15.44 "There's a deadlock reached and becauseì
there's a deadlock I have no option but to go backì
to where I got the mandate....the people whoì
elected us to parliament."
