Cope's BEE denial
The Congress of the People (Cope) on Thursday denied that it is against the country's black empowerment policies, saying its position on affirmative action has been "misinterpreted".
"The Cope has noted various media reports that seem to have misinterpreted our policy positions on BEE and affirmative action - Cope believes strongly in affirmative action and Black Economic Empowerment as necessary instruments of the change we profess," the organisation said in a statement.
