The Department of Basic Education is not aware of any investigations in provinces regarding the National School Nutrition Programme, sanitary pads, learner transport, infrastructure and/or any other tender irregularities. The provincial departments of education are better placed to respond to the question. The Honourable Member is advised to redirect the question to provinces.
