Question NW307 to the Minister of Social Development
04 March 2022 - NW307
Opperman, Ms G to ask the Minister of Social Development
Whether, with reference to the Pannar Seeds case which is five years old now, there will be any further action to recoup the R761 230 payment for the sunflower seeds that were (a) purchased and (b) delivered to the National Development Agency projects in the (i) Eastern Cape and (ii) Free State; if not, why not; if so, what are the relevant details?
Reply:
I would like to inform the Honourable Member that this matter is still in court as the NDA successfully applied for the rescission of the default judgement against it. The exchange of legal documents between the NDA and the plaintiff has not been finalised as the plaintiff must first reply to our notices in terms of Rule 35 (12) and (14).
