Committee appearances

IPID plans; DPCI high profile investigations & narcotics/firearms units; Illicit tobacco trade: TISA & Corruption Watch 6 Mar 2019

Mr E Buthelezi (IFP) said the Committee needs to do something about this because it undermines government’s efforts to reduce cigarette consumption and it is losing a lot of money in taxes. Informal traders seem to sell more of these illicit cigarettes compared to the legal ones.
