Lotteries commission COO Phillemon Letwaba has been accused of channelling multimillion-rand grants to NPOs that involved his family and friends
The scandal-plagued National Lotteries Commission is reviewing some of its processes before granting funding to worthy causes, amid concern that the current system is open to abuse.
Many of the projects funded through the proactive fund are infrastructure projects, including schools and early childhood development facilities. Briefing the portfolio committee on trade and industry on the distribution of funds from the National Lotteries Distribution Trust Fund, NLC executives said to ensure transparency and accountability, the commission had adopted a proactive funding framework to assist with an open and formalised process. This would facilitate basic checks and balances before any allocation is done.
