The Legal Services unit of the Western Cape Government has approached the State Attorney, requesting that independent legal counsel be appointed to conduct an external investigation into the veracity of the allegations made against Minister Albert Fritz.
We have now received confirmation that Advocate Jennifer Williams has been appointed to conduct the investigation.
I will communicate the outcome of the investigation and take such steps as may be necessary or appropriate upon its finalisation.
I have full faith that this investigation will be conducted with the integrity that it deserves.
