The reception will be hosted by the Speaker, with the Premier as the Guest of Honour, and it will end at around 15H00. Mrs Thelma Fowler and Mrs Judy Sexwale will also be present. There will be several photo opportunities, and photographers are requested to contact the undersigned in Room 144 for temporary access cards. Journalists are reminded to wear their cards visibly at all times inside the building, as this is a necessary security stipulation. For parking in the Harry Hofmeyer Garage journalists may use their Media access cards for entry, after which they will be given tickets which must be stamped at the President Street reception, for free use.
Parking bays are very limited, and all are advised to arrive early for space.
Also limited are seats in the Media Gallery on the second floor, where journalists will be free to use the left-hand side for proceedings in Selborne Hall.
