Carter, Ms D to ask the Minister of Police

Whether he has written to the Speaker of the National Assembly to withdraw, cancel or expunge his report on Nkandla upgrades and to tender a public apology to the Public Protector for as the President’s Counsel in the Constitutional Court conceded that he has in a sense shot his bolt in making findings; if not, why not; if so, what are the relevant details?

Reply:

The Minister has not written to the Speaker of the National Assembly to withdraw, cancel or expunge his report on the Nkandla upgrades. It must be noted that the consession made by the President’s Counsel does not render the report invalid. So far the Minister’s report has not been tested against it being factually incorrect in any legal forum.
