Alberts, Mr ADW to ask the Minister of Transport

Whether the procedure as set out in section 4(2) of the Air Services Licensing Act, Act 115 of 1990, which provides that the Minister should consult when appointing members to the board with representatives of organised business, the industry, transport and air services sectors as well as with organised labour, in respect of the newly appointed members of the Air Services Licensing Board, has been met; if not, (a) what are the relevant particulars and (b) what steps will he take to rectify the omission; if so, (i) what are the relevant particulars and (ii) what proof can he provide that the legal requirement has been met; (2) Whether he will dissolve the appointments to the board and implement the process anew; if not, why not?

Reply:

  1. With reference to the question of Honourable Adv A de W Alberts, it should be clarified that the Minister of Transport is still investigating the appointment of the Air Service Licensing Board members, in order to determine if the board was properly constituted in terms of the Air Licensing Act, Act 115 of 1990.
  2. Falls away
