members whose constituencies are connected with border areas where they stand in respect of the border areas. They are also in favour of the development of their areas, while others are opposing it. They are divided! [Time expired.]

Maj. J. E. LINDSAY:

Mr. Chairman, I am very pleased indeed to have the opportunity to follow on the hon. member for Florida, especially in connection with the question of border industries and border areas. I think it is very necessary that we should get clarity on this matter. Our opposition to the border industries has throughout since their announcement, been based on the major fact that the Government is establishing industries on the borders of areas which are going to become completely independent foreign states. Now, that is the first reason for our opposition to the border industries. The most vulnerable part of our economy will now be the outpost on our frontiers with foreign states. We are actually establishing them there.

*HON. MEMBERS:

Nonsense.

Maj. J. E. LINDSAY:

Have you ever seen anything like that? Then the hon. member comes along and he talks of the success of the border industries at the moment. When we asked why Hammarsdale and Rosslyn and these places were next to the developed areas, he said, “Of course we start with the easiest first, who wouldn’t?”. If we were in the Government, as we shall soon be we certainly would not tackle the easiest first; we would tackle the area which requires it most first. Not just the easiest, but the area which requires it most. Then, may I say that where some of us talk as I am going to talk about the development in the Eastern Cape, then I am not talking in favour of border industries for the purpose for which that hon. member is putting it there, but I am talking of it in relation to the definition given by the hon. member for Parktown, namely the decentralization of our industries. We agree with the decentralization of industries and we stand for it.

I want to return to the Eastern Cape sector. I hoped that I should be in the position to-day where I could also have thanked not only the Minister, but the Government for the wisdom of their decision to place the third Iscor on the Berlin Flats. However, I am disappointed and dismayed because the hon. the Minister has not been able to do so. Not only that, he does not even make an announcement of some other major project which possibly could go there. I therefore want to use this opportunity, because I feel that the time is at hand for this announcement, to make a final appeal for the placement of a major project preferably the third Iscor on the Berlin Flats. I do not want to discuss, nor do I want to repeat the arguments in favour of this matter, as I have stated them often enough, but I think the Government must surely be aware of the dire need for some such project in that area. I am not being parochial when I speak of this, because it affects my constituency. The problem which is building up in my constituency is one of the major problems of South Africa and it just so happens that it is building up in my constituency. There we have this problem of an under-developed homeland where we have the problem of unemployment which is aggravated by the repatriation policy of this Government. This policy is causing what the hon. member for Florida said is happening in Ireland. The Government is actually bringing that about in my constituency. What is more, according to to-day’s standards, even the White area is industrially backward and neglected. Therefore, I contend and I believe that the Government is building up a powder keg which, if it were not for the good nature of the people concerned, would have led and will certainly, unless something drastic is done by the Government, lead to a major explosion. We are faced with the problem of what can and what must be done. I know the hon. the Minister will get up and reply that the Government is doing its utmost. The Government cannot take an industrialist by the scruff of his neck and put him there, the Government is giving these border concessions and it has even extended its concessions considerably, as he announced in September last year. I agree, the concessions are liberal. I also agree that these concessions have created a measure of interest as we have never had before.

Dr. A. J. VISSER:

Are you in favour of it?

Maj. J. E. LINDSAY:

But of course I am and I have explained why. But with this interest alone we are only scratching the surface of the problem in that area. The basic difficulty with these concessions is that they apply equally to all the border areas. Because of the disadvantages in relation to markets and raw materials which apply specifically because of circumstances to the Ciskei and the Transkei, which in the main one can describe as geographic, industrialists, despite the concessions, rather go to another border area than to the Eastern Cape or, as we call it, the proper Border. We all know that we have the concession of 25 per cent rebate on harbour dues and other port charges. We know that it has made some difference.
