Parliament says it is in the process of \u201cestablishing appropriate systems\u201d which will help it to \u201cprocess and oversee\u201d the implementation of the State Capture Report.<\/p>\n

The full report is due to be handed over to the legislative body following the submission of the last tranche of the report to President Cyril Ramaphosa.<\/p>\n

According to Parliament spokesperson, Moloto Mothapo, the President has already submitted the third tranche of the report to Parliament which has flagged some past and present members of Parliament.<\/p>\n

\u201cPart three of the report identifies several past and present Members of Parliament who are implicated in conduct that may constitute illegal, unlawful, or unethical behaviour. As the aspects of the report have a direct bearing on parliamentary business, the institution has swiftly initiated a processes to implement its recommendations.<\/p>\n

\u201cAccordingly, the Joint Committee on Ethics and Members\u2019 Interests has been requested to investigate possible contraventions of the Code of Ethical Conduct and Disclosure of Members\u2019 Interest for Assembly and Parliament Council Members. This applies only to current members who were serving in Parliament when any alleged transgressions took place,\u201d Mothapo said.<\/p>\n

He added that although the President is expected to hand over the full report on or before August 31st this year, Parliament has already moved to make sure that it is ready to implement recommendations.<\/p>\n

\u201cParliament’s research department is currently processing the reports, summarising them into, amongst others, action plans to improve Parliament\u2019s execution of its constitutional mandate consistent with the corrective measures contained in the reports.<\/p>\n

\u201cParliament’s Legal Services department has conducted an analysis of the reports and has generated a legal opinion proposing a process Parliament should follow in dealing with the reports once officially submitted,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Mothapo acknowledged that Parliament is obligated to \u201cimplement corrective measures\u201d stemming from the report where it has a \u201crole to play\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u201cSimilarly, Parliament has a responsibility to oversee the Executive’s and state agencies’ actions in their process of carrying out the implementation of commission reports.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Rules Committee will, at an opportune time, consider how best to process the reports and implementation plan in their entirety,\u201d he said. \u2013 SAnews.gov.za<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
