About time GEP got its act together for SME's sake reader letter"> By reader letter - 23 April 2021 - 10:32 Picture: 123RF/JAMESTEOHART The appointment of a new permanent CEO to the Gauteng Enterprise Propeller (GEP) is long overdue. This entity of the department of economic development in the province has been plagued by numerous issues, which has now led to an investigation by the Special Investigating Unit (SIU) into any unlawful activities that may have taken place between January 1 2017 and April 1 this year. I truly hope that with the appointment of Saki Zamxaka as the CEO, small businesses in Gauteng who are supposed to be assisted by the GEP receive the assistance they need, including the distribution of the R250m that was allocated to the GEP last year to aid small businesses.
