Public Service and Administration Minister Ayanda Dlodlo has ascribed the reduction in the number of civil servants doing business with the state to the effectiveness of interventions that the public service has introduced to grapple with the issue.
Dlodlo said the National Treasury found 1 068 employees alleged to have conducted business with the state at the end of March 2019, consisting of 270 employees from national departments and 798 from provincial departments. “SAPS is currently investigating 17 employees who were alleged to be conducting business with the state and three of these cases have already been referred to the NPA for prosecution,” Dlodlo said. “One of these cases was enrolled in court.”
Independent Media reported in March that former minister Senzo Mchunu had told DA MP Mimmy Gondwe in a written reply to parliamentary questions that national and provincial departments were paying R4.5 billion to public service employees facing disciplinary processes between 2019 and 2021. The minister said the commission and the department were exploring various options, including the reinstatement of employees whose cases have exceeded the 90 day period, where the misconduct in question is not of a serious nature.
