He continued, \u201cThe Western Cape Provincial Parliament (WCPP) is committed to deepening democracy and endeavours to provide access to its activities to people from across the province.

Hosting this event in George in the Garden Route district in 2026 means that the WCPP will have taken this event to all six districts in the Western Cape.\u201d<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
As in the past, the event will be livestreamed on the WCPP\u2019s social media channels for those individuals who cannot attend in person.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
