The Standing Committee on Public Accounts (Scopa) has received a letter from Eskom's suspended chief procurement officer Solly Tshitangano which levels allegations against CEO André de Ruyter. As a result the committee decided not to proceed with a scheduled meeting on Wednesday, in which it was to be briefed by Eskom officials and the board on the power utility's annual report for 2019/20, an update on probes conducted by the Special Investigating Unit (SIU) and deviations and expansions related to procurement processes for the year 2020/21.
The Scopa hearing follows two years in which Prasa got two consecutive disclaimers from the Auditor-General. The rail agency is also the government entity with the highest irregular expenditure at over R1 billion rand.
