Appearances

• Public Accounts Standing Committee Legacy Report 13 Mar 2019

  Mr E Kekana (ANC) said that the Report should talk about the training of Members. Members did have training, but it was inadequate. The 6th Parliament should focus on the issue of the training of Members. At some stage, SCOPA Members were using their common sense in dealing with the ...

• Department of Water and Sanitation & Water Trading Entity on Internal Control and Leadership in Department: hearing 6 Dec 2018

  Mr E Kekana (ANC) was under the impression that the water boards seem to be doing as they wish. Are the boards properly constituted? What is the relationship between the implementing agents and leadership? There seemed to be a gap between the two. Some of the CEOs of the water ...

• Public Investment Corporation (PIC) financial matters: hearing 6 Dec 2018

  Mr E Kekana (ANC) said that his difficulty was that it was not a normal SCOPA hearing. His concern was about the reputational risk. The PIC was operating like an underground structure which did not want people to know what it was doing, even though there were certain good things ...

• Department of Water and Sanitation & Water Trading Entity on Accrual and Implementing Agencies: hearing 5 Dec 2018

• Public Investment Corporation (PIC) briefing 21 Nov 2018

  Mr E Kekana (ANC) said that the assumption from PIC is that SCOPA does not understand its role and wants to educate SCOPA on its role. The Chairperson wrote a letter in June and indicated the information SCOPA was looking at. PIC was to engage SCOPA on the information requested. ...

• Integrated Financial Management System (IFMS) forensic investigation: Treasury update 20 Nov 2018

  Mr E Kekana (ANC) was concerned that SCOPA was witnessing a trend. Why did the DG agree to a meeting when he knew there was no report? SCOPA is not going to allow the Director General to doctor the report. The Committee will look at the report and comment on ...
