Khawula, Ms MS to ask the Minister of Justice and Correctional Services

(a) What are the reasons that his department has failed to intervene and/or resolve the matter relating to a certain official (name and details furnished), who has been repeatedly prevented from assuming responsibilities, despite various arbitration and court orders instructing the department to re-instate the specified official and (b) on what date is it envisaged that the official will be allowed back at work without any further hindrances?

Reply:

a) The Department did not fail to intervene and/or resolve the matter in terms of administrative legislative prescripts. The Department is following processes provided for in law.

b) The matter is handled within legislative prescripts and must be allowed to follow due course. The matter is sub judice as fair administrative procedure depends on prevailing circumstances of each case.
