SAA dares not publish its financial statements of the past two years because it would almost certainly be liquidated if it did, Public Enterprises Minister Pravin Gordhan has told Parliament

This week, at a joint sitting of the standing committee on public accounts and the portfolio committee on public enterprises, the department was chastised for the airline’s outstanding financial statements.

ANC secretary-general Ace Magashule recently said the alliance partners had the final say over the airline, and that government would not hesitate to intervene if necessary. MPs appeared to be dissatisfied with the department’s explanation, which led to Gordhan spelling out exactly what the consequences of liquidation would entail.

“As far as I know, SAA is the first state-owned institution that has been subjected to business rescue,” he said. ANC secretary-general Ace Magashule recently said the alliance partners had the final say over the airline, and that government would not hesitate to intervene if necessary.

Is that legal..public wants to know how is their tax money used..Pravin is now acting like a dictator..

Then liquidate it. Enough of our tax money has gone into it. Its a failed business. Let someone make an offer for it.

What an idiot ! He tells that SOEs can do what they want. Sue him, he is responsible for that !

Previous years?

Lies we know that the financial statements would reveal, how WMC is milking SAA, Jamnadas can tell that nonsense to stupid people

BULL DUST! Rather be liquidated if they want to be treated like kids

Man so much is worrisome here 🤦‍♀️

So, break the law to keep a SOE alive? If SAA cannot be solvent on the basis of it’s balance sheet, then I cannot see how business rescue is appropriate.

Then how is DBSA funding SAA without financial statements?

Wonder if normally citizens running a business can get away with this ?
