The Office of the Premier (OTP) in the Eastern Cape has come under fire for allowing departments “to appoint people who do not qualify to senior positions in an acting capacity for more than a reasonable period”.
And the portfolio committee on the Office of the Premier said in its report tabled in the Bhisho Legislature this afternoon that this was a “malpractice” and it wants an audit carried out of unfilled posts and a plan to meet this challenge handed to it within 30 days.
The committee also found that despite its recommendations last year that there should be a review of the provincial bursary scheme there was no evidence that this had in fact happened. In addition, it said, departments continued to receive negative audit reports and “still fail to implement turn-around plans”.

the OTP loves to employ pals and relatives. There are many staff members there who are related to each other and even to the higher ups.
