W Mchunu: Opening of the KwaZulu-Natal media gallery

The KwaZulu-Natal Legislature aspires to be a modern, dynamic institution reflecting professionalism, responsiveness and bias to action. * To advance a more participatory democracy, Parliament or Legislature should open all their processes to media coverage, including the work of Parliamentary or Legislature committees.
