With reference to the R160 million contract awarded by her department to a certain company (name furnished) to provide e-learning services in the Eastern Cape, (a) on which dates since the start of the national lockdown to curb the spread of Covid-19 has the specified company provided e-learning services to learners in the Eastern Cape and (b) what are the relevant details of the e-learning services that the company provided to learners in the Eastern Cape on each specified date?

The Hon Member, D van der Walt, is advised to request the party member of the Eastern Cape Provincial Legislature to table the question in the Legislature to enable the MEC to respond to the question. The Minister of Basic Education does not manage provincial allocations and procurement imperatives.
