Ad Hoc Committee to begin drafting final report

CAPE TOWN - Parliament's SAPS Ad Hoc Committee has moved to the next phase of its work.

The committee has been holding public hearings into corruption and political interference in the police and the judiciary.

Lawmakers will now begin drafting their final report.

The questions may have stopped after the committee's final witness appeared this week, but MPs said the real work of analysing the evidence has only just begun.

They are now working towards their end-of-March deadline to submit their findings and recommendations to the Speaker of Parliament.

Committee chairperson Soviet Lekganyane said MPs have agreed on a list of activities that will be happening,

“First of all we are going to have a workshop on Constitutional principles that will underpin the writing of the report and thereafter we are going to have the overview of evidence by the legal team or our evidence leaders and then the continent team will later draft the report for deliberations by the Committee which will need some time to discuss the report and once we are satisfied we will then move for the adoption of the report," Lekganyane said.
