Committee Legacy Report; Progress report on implementation of the Zondo Commission recommendations

Video The Committee convened a virtual meeting to deliberate on its draft legacy report for the Sixth Parliament. The Committee discussed how to enhance the report by amending its structure and for the inclusion of certain issues which had come up during the Committee’s tenure such as benchmarking, unbundling Eskom, dismissal of the Director-General, the sale of SAA, Electricity Regulation Amendment (ERA) Bill and doing away with the Department of Public Enterprises (DPE). Members also suggested that the incoming Parliament consider some of the issues such as the implementation of the ‘GBE Consortium report’ commissioned by National Treasury in September 2023, return on investment regarding SOEs and Denel land claims. The Committee was then provided with an update on what DPE was doing regarding implementation of the Zondo Commission recommendations. Members felt the update lacked detail and asked for information on detailed investigations.
