ANC Officials will discuss issues of discipline of all members internally and will not engage on internal matters with the media.* Finally, the ANC will continue to engage with the leadership of the ANC Youth League on a constant basis. We will also continue to engage with the leadership of the ANC Women’s League as well as the ANC Veterans League.
