Pravin Gordhan accused the rescue practitioners of incompetence and enriching themselves, having already invoiced R30m

Public enterprises minister Pravin Gordhan and his ANC colleagues ripped into SAA’s business rescue practitioners in a parliamentary committee meeting on Friday, accusing them of incompetence, of enriching themselves, and implying that they had nefariously lined up a fire-sale of assets.

Gordhan, his officials and business rescue practitioners Siviwe Dongwana and Les Matuson briefed the standing committee on public accounts — parliament’s financial watchdog over public entities — for a tense three and half hours on Friday afternoon. The airline has been in business rescue since December 5 but the practitioners are yet to produce a rescue plan.

Aviation expert company to chart new path for airline replacing SAA — GordhanThe job of the business rescue practitioners at SAA was to make the best possible effort to ensure there was a viable business at the end of the process, public enterprises minister Pravin Gordhan said on Friday. Is this another PatriciaDeLille chicken fence scenario where government appoints a service provider but do not set out the specs required. More money down the drain. Well done treasurySA Or do you guys not simply give a damn what damage you do! pravingordhan That only comes when it has been established that there was something to save. And money to execute a savings plan. Part of that plan might include management changes. But, if it determined that company cannot be saved, it will be liquidated. That should be SAA. Kahle kahle then why are these BRP blamed for what they have presented, a draft plan? They can't give a final plan coz they aren't owners! Even Min of Basic Education has been presenting draft plans for schools to resume duties!!
