Every province, apart from the Western Cape, owes money to service providers, with outstanding invoices running into millions of rands. This was revealed by the Public Service Commission’s Anele Gxoyiya during a media briefing on Tuesday.

During the briefing, Gxoyiya said corruption “undermines democracy and public trust in government and negatively impacts state services and thus community and social development”.“The Zondo Commission … highlights the seriousness of corruption and unethical practices in the country.”

“Of critical importance is that ignorance of the law is an inadequate defence if an unlawful instruction is issued,” he said “Where doubt exists about the lawfulness of instruction/proposed action, legal advice should be sought from internal legal services/external sources such as the Office of the State Attorney or the Office of the Chief State Law Advisor,” said Gxoyiya, adding that under the Public Finance Management Act, any directive with financial implications, by an executive authority to an accounting officer, must be done in writing.

“The findings suggest that all SMS members who participated in the study have a clear understanding of the conduct, decorum, professionalism and the essential values befitting of an ideal public servant, quality service delivery and optimal performance,” said Gxoyiya.

No surprise about the common denominator.

The DA difference.

Macfarlane123 It can't go on like this. Support Cape independence.

The ANC way! Again.

The million dollar question: 'So why can't other provinces service their debts?' Or has one have to pose the question to the ANC MYANC ?

This City Works for Me!

Some of us did not need a Commission to tell us this, the evidence is clear. Stinking rich, fat, municipality workers driving luxury cars, wearing expensive clothes, municipal services & infrastructure crumbling, the money had to be going to these disgusting, thieving cretins.

Imagine that!! Many small businesses likely affected but The Dept of Small Business not remotely bothered.

Disgusting
