Pillay yet again.
For reasons best known to somebody in the Legislature it was decided not to distribute Chapter 2 of the Pillay Commission report, authored by Judge Ronnie Pillay (pictured), that interestingly enough is dated December 1 2006 the first pages of which were leaked to the media and contain allegations to which those accused have not had the opportunity to reply.
That has now been rectified.
No explanation has yet been provided, however, as to why the Premier sat on the report for some 18 months and the question being asked is whether it was not being held back as “dry powder” for use at the right moment.
The ad hoc committee examining the report and that is considering among other things whether the commission complied with its mandate has requested an extension of time to complete its deliberations.
Committee chairman Phumulo Masualle says information is still waited from departments and he has now been given to August 26 to report when the Legislature is scheduled to sit again.

that man pillay.
it is clear that the leaks were deliberate to try and rattle the ANC choices.
what is interesting is what portions of the report were leaked.
I also thought there was something in the commissions act which do not allow media leaks esp of the nature they took in the dispatch.
but the full report must make for boring but fascinating reading. He or his staff could have done with someone who could write and edit the english language though
