The haggling between the Inkatha Freedom Party and the African National Congress over KwaZulu-Natal cabinet posts has ended, with Premier S'bu Ndebele set to announce his full cabinet - which will include three IFP ministers - in Pietermaritzburg on Wednesday. After two weeks of intense talks, the parties announced that an agreement had been reached on the formation of a "broad-based" provincial government. "The IFP has accepted three provincial cabinet positions, as initially offered by the ANC. The ANC also gave the IFP the position of deputy Speaker of the legislature," ANC provincial secretary Sipho Gcabashe said.
