Presidency on call by DA for inquiry into national intelligence
structure

27 March 2006

The Presidency has noted yesterday’s public call by the Democratic Alliance
(DA) to the President to establish a judicial commission of enquiry “to
investigate the mandate and activities of the national intelligence
structure.”

The Presidency will study the reported written correspondence from the DA
and if necessary issue a statement in due course.

Meanwhile, the Presidency wishes to advise that neither is there a need for
anyone to communicate with the President through the media nor will any
political party or the country benefit from attempts to exploit the findings of
the intelligence inspector general’s investigation.
