its bid for funding has so far been unsuccessful, largely due to its failure to meet about of the Treasury’s strict preconditions. During that briefing, Motsoeneng defended the quota‚ criticised a parliamentary ad hoc committee probe that looked into problems at the SABC‚ and insulted an interim board member at the time.

When Norman questioned Motsoeneng about this he responded: “Chairperson, it’s hearsay; they didn’t present evidence.” SIU head advocate Andy Mothibi, it said, told the portfolio committee on communication that the SIU was also chasing 10 civil cases totaling R550m, including about R21m from Motsoeneng.
