Hon Minister, I would like to know if your office is going to investigate the number of cases that are outstanding for disciplinary and corruption practices by departmental officials because in the committee I serve we are told, on a regular basis, that there are cases which are not finalised in good time. Some of the departments are not aggressive in pursuing either disciplinary or criminal proceedings against officials who are allegedly corrupt. I want to know if your Ministry would take this forward.
The MINISTER IN THE PRESIDENCY - PERFORMANCE MONITORING AND EVALUATION, AS WELL AS ADMINISTRATION IN THE PRESIDENCY: If there are processes which are not moving with speed, they will be dealt with through another process, not this one. I have indicated the tasks of this committee.
However, we do interact with state agencies which deal with various cases. It is not our job to investigate. We ensure that those who are tasked with doing the job do it speedily and according to law. Thank you.
