5 Aug 2010

A member of the delegation from the KwaZulu-Natal Reserve Force, Durban Light Infantry, collapsed today while making a submission on the Defence Amendment Bill to Parliament’s Portfolio Committee on Defence and Military Veterans.

Despite efforts by Metro Ambulance Service and ER 24 to resuscitate the reservist, she died of cardiac arrest and was pronounced dead at 17h00 today.

Parliament is in the process of informing her family of her death.

Parliament extends its deepest condolences to the family and friends of the deceased.
