Minister in The Presidency, Collins Chabane as the Chairperson of the Anti-Corruption Inter-Ministerial Committee, has noted media reports on the proposal by the Council for the Advancement of the South African Constitution (CASAC) for the establishment of an independent agency to investigate acts of corruption.
Minister Chabane would like to welcome any initiative by any sector of our society which will help rid the country of the scourge of corruption. Minister Chabane further reiterates that any such initiative should be within the framework of the laws of our country.
“Government has prioritised the fight against corruption as one of the five priorities. Government further remains committed to fight corruption and continues to have confidence in institutions of state charged with the responsibility to fight corruption” said Minister Chabane.
Government would like to call on all South Africans who have any information that can assist in the fight against corruption to submit such information to the relevant institutions.
