The SABC Bill seeks to create a new funding model for the corporation
SABC Board Chairperson Khathu Ramukumba has rejected any rumors of a second Section 189 process at the public broadcaster.
More than 600 SABC employees were affected during the retrenchments in 2021, under the previous board.However, this has been dismissed by Ramukumba. On the issue of TV license collection, at the end of last year the SABC was owed more than R50 billion in outstanding license fees.Ramukumba says he has registered his concern with the Minister of Communications and Digital Technologies.
“The TV license collection remains a fundamental funding component in the SABC broader funding model. So, that’s why you would note that we continue to appoint companies to be debt collectors to assist us in pursuing those who owe us from the TV license regime. Interestingly you are mentioning the government departments who also don’t pay.
