The Legislature is getting tough on the Pillay Commission report with ANC Premier Nosimo Balindlela being given 14 days to release the report.
The ANC this morning backed a DA call for the commission report to be released and if Balindlela now refuses to do so she is going to be on a collision course not only with the Legislature but her own party.
The Grahamstown Public Service Accountability Monitor (PSAM) has also lodged papers in terms of the Promotion of Access to Information Act to get the report and Balindlela has until the end of this week to respond and until the end of this month to release it.
DA chief whip, Bobby Stevenson gave notice this morning saying the Premier had made a commitment to release the report on three separate occasions – most recently this week – but had no given no indication of when this would happen.
Now in just 14 days we will know why she has been so reluctant to let the people of the province know what the report contains.
