The meeting of Parliament’s Communications Committee was tense as members could not agree on how to resolve the SABCBoard debacle following President Cyril Ramaphosa’s letter seeking legal clarity.
The SABC building in Auckland Park, Johannesburg.
This followed legal advice from Parliament’s Senior Legal Adviser, Advocate Frank Jenkins, who briefed the sub-committee on how to respond to the letter from Ramaphosa and resolve the matter. “The three other names which have now caused the confusion, which is induced confusion by the President, even the letter that the President wrote and the letters that have been exchanged between the Minster and the Speaker, there is absolutely no confusion on who are the twelve names that must be appointed.”
He says the committee will also give an indication on whether to seek independent legal advice as was suggested by the African National Congress in the sub-committee with objections from the EFF and IFP.
