This includes some leaders in the opposition \u2013 such as the premier of the Western Cape [Alan Winde] \u2013 who as recently as last month were writing me letters and holding media briefings calling for a state of disaster to be declared,\u201d Ramaphosa said.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, Ramaphosa said DA MP Cilliers Brink called the Disaster Management Act \u201ca dangerous weapon in the hands of incompetent ministers\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is the same Disaster Management Act that made possible our decisive, effective and agile response to successive waves of Covid-19 infections. It was this act that empowered us during that pandemic to save many lives and prevent even greater hardship. It is this Disaster Management Act that has on numerous occasions enabled us to provide urgent relief and support to people affected by floods and other natural disasters,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Ramaphosa said with the state of disaster, environmental protections and technical standards would be maintained.<\/p>\n<p>Procurement would also be undertaken with transparency and proper oversight, he assured MPs.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs we build an electricity system that will meet our energy requirements into the future, we need to dispel some of the myths that have been circulating \u2013 and that have been repeated here \u2013 about the path we are taking.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We need to dispel this idea that we are abandoning coal as a fuel source. We should all remember that coal-fired power stations provide 80% of our energy source and will therefore continue to provide the bulk of our \u2018base load\u2019 supply into the future,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Regarding the new ministry of electricity, Ramaphosa said this minister would assume full responsibility for overseeing all aspects of the electricity crisis response.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe minister will be responsible for driving the various actions being coordinated by the National Energy Crisis Committee to end load shedding as a matter of urgency. The reality is that the resolution of the energy crisis requires effective coordination across several departments and public entities,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>The president said the energy crisis required &#8220;undivided attention of a political principal who does not need to split time and energies among different important responsibilities&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>He added that it was not accurate that the minister of electricity would clash with other ministers who have been responsible for energy.<\/p>\n<p>Ramaphosa said:<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This is not the case. The minister of electricity will be focused day in and day out only on addressing the load shedding crisis, working together with the management of Eskom and the board. The minister will be leading the National Energy Crisis Committee and interacting with all other departments in the spirit of cooperative governance.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/south-africa\">South-Africa<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; South-Africa.
