DA calls for special inspector-general to prevent graft in relief fund

To prevent corruption and theft in the R500 billion Covid-19 rescue package, the DA has proposed that Minister of Finance Tito Mboweni create a special inspector-general.

Briefing the media on Monday, the party said regular processes are suspended when funding is dispersed under disaster relief and emergency provisions of law, which has, in the past, resulted in massive wasteful expenditure, with no results. Prevent the payment of any monies to, or recall moneys from any individual or entity where the special inspector-general finds deficiencies, non-adherence to processes, or potential abuse of power or corruption.

Have powers to investigate the legitimacy of any eligible businesses receiving any state-backed Covid-19 funding.
