MK Party concerned about poor attendance at Ad Hoc Committee meetings
The committee is currently holding deliberations on its draft report and recommendations
The uMkhonto weSizwe Party (MKP) has expressed concern over the attendance of certain members of the Ad Hoc Committee. This committee is currently delving into allegations of political interference and criminal infiltration within the South African criminal justice system, a matter first raised by KwaZulu-Natal Police Chief Lieutenant General Nhlanhla Mkhwanazi.
The committee has been deliberating on its draft report and recommendations, which commenced with seven members present. The committee comprises 11 full-time members and seven alternate members, making a total of 18. The party's spokesperson, visibly troubled, lamented the situation, stating, "I’m disturbed, I must say. I’m really disturbed about this matter and I’m not going to keep quiet about it, because, I feel like we are letting down our people.
We started very well in the other committee, all of us attending, you know, but it looks like as time goes on, when we’re supposed to be finishing this, we are still having problems."
