PAC firebrand MP, Patricia Delille, asks president Mbeki, why he states that anti-retroviral AIDS drugs are too toxic to give to poor AIDS sufferers and yet there are members of parliament who are taking them, during an AIDS debate, in parliament. October 2001.
One of the most active HIV (Aids) activists in the country is Pratricia de Lille. Between 1994 and 1999, she was the chairperson of the Transport committee and the chief whip for the PAC in parliament. She also served in various portfolio committees including Health, Mineral and Energies, Trade and Industry, Communication, the rules committee and the codes of ethics. Ironically, de Lille used the very same rule of floor crossing that she fiercely opposed in parliament to break away from the Pan Africanist Congress to form her own political party, Independent Democrats in 2003. She retained her seat in parliament.
