22 November 2023 - NW3935
Malatsi, Mr MS to ask the Minister of Cooperative Governance and Traditional Affairs
Whether (a) she, (b) the Deputy Ministers and (c) any other official in her department attended the Rugby World Cup final in France in October 2023; if not; what is the position in this regard; if so, what (i) are the relevant details of each person in her department who attended the Rugby World Cup, (ii) is the total number of such persons and (iii) were the total costs of (aa) travel, (bb) accommodation and (cc) any other related costs that were incurred by her department as a result of the trip(s)?
Reply:
According to the records of the department: Myself, the Deputy Ministers and any employee of the department did not attend Rugby World Cup in France in 2023, in official capacity.
Nothing prohibited officials to attend Rugby World final in France as it would have been done in their own expenses.
End.
