Bozzoli, Prof B to ask the Minister of Higher Education and Training
(1)What was the outcome of the investigation following the suspension of a certain official (name and details furnished) at the University of Johannesburg (UJ) in 2013 on alleged financial impropriety; (2) was the specified official reinstated after the investigation; if not, why not; (3) was the specified person appointed as Dean of the College of Science, Engineering and Technology at the University of South Africa with the university’s knowledge that he had been suspended at UJ; if so, (a) on what date and (b) why?

The Minister of Higher Education and Training does not appoint university personnel. The Council of the university is the employer and therefore, as the Minister, I am not privy to information regarding the dismissal or appointment of university employees.
