DA welcomes suspension of Gauteng Health officials
9 February 2017
I welcome the announced suspension of Dr Barney Selebano, head of the Gauteng Health Department, and the notice of intention to suspend that has been served on Dr Makgabo Manamela, the mental health head.
This is a necessary step in the disciplinary process which will open the way for new top level appointments that will hopefully be more professional and ethical.
There are nine other senior officials who were identified in the Ombudsman's Report who also need to be suspended and disciplined.
