Former Prasa chair Popo Molefe told the state-capture commission in July that the ANC was aware of alleged corruption at the rail operator

The Treasury has said it will meet the deadline set by the high court in the Western Cape to appoint someone to head-up the Passenger Rail Agency of SA before the end of the week.

According to the Public Finance Management Act, if a public entity has a board, that board is the accounting authority. If it does not have a board, the CEO or person in charge is the accounting authority for that entity. In May, Prasa announced that it was facing a “debilitating cash-flow crunch” after failing to pay R23m to employees’ retirement fund benefits for the previous two months. The state-owned enterprise said it was considering job cuts through voluntary severance packages to ease its financial woes.
