Parliament’s ethics committee has cleared former health minister Dr Zweli Mkhize of contravening the MPs code of ethics in relation to the Digital Vibes scandal.
“In respect of part 1 above, the committee noted that in order for an MP to be held liable for a benefit that a family member is alleged to have received, the family member must fit within the definition of immediate family member as defined in the code of ethical conduct and disclosure of members’ interests for assembly and permanent council members,” wrote advocate Anthea Gordon, the ethics committee’s acting registrar.
The committee said Mkhize’s son was an adult, married individual who is not financially dependent on him.
