Parliament has announced that the State of the Nation Address will be held at the Cape Town City Hall on 10 February.

Earlier this week, Mayor Geordin Hill-Lewis offered the City Hall for the use of SONA next month, as the fire caused extensive damage to the National Assembly and the Old Assembly buildings.
