CAPE TOWN – Sascoc have criticised sports minister Nathi Mthethwa’s decision to invoke section 13 of the Sports and Recreation Act, stripping all authority from Cricket South Africa as cricket’s governing body in the country.
The decision was taken after CSA’s Members Council failed to implement the recommendations of the Nicholson Report.“Our considered view is that Section 13 of the Act needs to be read and applied in its entirety rather than selectively. Had the minister done that, he would have realised this instrument was not only inapplicable in this case, but also, that he has overreached,” Sascoc said in a statement released late on Saturday evening.
“You cannot forgo existing governance processes to impose Nicholson’s finding, however well intended they maybe, because in so doing you fall foul of the exact same thing you are trying to rectify. It does not take a paragon of correctness to see that.”South Africa’s national Olympic committee urged the minister and the Members Council to work with them to enhance the governance of cricket in the country.

ANC cadres are exceptionally good at dismantling/destroying things...just ask them to build anything in this country.... Rugby better watch out for Mthetwa. Now that he has destroyed the national summer sport, they are next for the chop. All sport will eventually be 'democratised' to the the level of soccer in this country, the usual anc standard, the lowest common denominator. Merit is a swearword in the anc vocabulary
