The Eskom board was meant to appear before the committee to present an update on the embattled power utility following a visit and recommendations made last year.
Eskom CEO Andre de Ruyter and other executives were present at the meeting. Now Scopa wants the board to explain its no-show. "The committee is concerned with the reckless, irresponsible and careless manner in which the board elected not to appear before it as there was no apology and no explanation sent to the committee," said committee chair Mkhuleko Hlengwa in a statement.
"This is very concerning to Scopa, as the board is the accounting authority. Furthermore, this is an interim board tasked with assisting Eskom to turn things around."
