Question NW1191 to the Minister of Basic Education
08 May 2018 - NW1191
Boshoff, Ms SH to ask the Minister of Basic Education
What number of cases of (a) fraud and (b) theft committed by (i) educators and (ii) support staff have been reported in each district in each province (aa) in each of the past three academic years and (bb) since 1 January 2018?
Reply:
The question is relevant to the provincial administration since it is the responsibility of the employer, who in terms of section 3(1)(b) of the Employment of Educators Act is the Head of the Provincial Education Department. The honourable member is encouraged to request the relevant information directly from the Provinces.
