RECAP: The breakdown of Sars was inevitable the minute Tom Moyane was appointed commissioner, says retired Judge Robert Nugent after six months of investigations into tax governance and administration at the revenue service.

The breakdown of the South African Revenue Service was inevitable the minute Tom Moyane was appointed commissioner, says retired Judge Robert Nugent after six months of investigations into tax governance and administration at the revenue service.

Nugent said Moyane broke down the structures of good governance in Sars to achieve the seizure of the revenue services by driving out and marginalising senior management and replacing them with those who would be more compliant. He also halted the development of Sars’s IT systems, which had its own function of oversight through built-in checks and balances that were “pulled apart”.

The former head of the local office of Bain — Vittorio Massone — previously told the commission he had a meeting with Moyane in October 2013 prior to him being appointed commissioner a year later. The purpose of this meeting was to “advise Mr Moyane on how to achieve his professional goals”. The report also recommends that global advisory firm Gartner who conducted a multiphased restructure of Sars’s IT system should have their contracts set aside and repay back the money paid where their services “added no value to Sars”.
