The National Assembly breaks today without a return date and unless called back through a special sitting, this could be the last of the 12th Parliament.

Members face scrutiny over how they have conducted their legislative, representative and oversight duties. The intertwined roles have earned them more criticism than praise.

Parliament provide oversight on the Executive and Judiciary. The current legislature has been accused of doing a bad job at that.
