DA welcomes Independent Review Panel findings on PP removal proceedings
1 March 2021
The Democratic Alliance (DA) welcomes the finding by the Independent Review Panel that there is a prima facie case for Parliament to institute removal proceedings against the Public Protector, Adv. BusisiweMkhwebane.
We are pleased by these findings and urge Parliament to institute the removal proceedings against Mkhwebane without delay.
During her tenure as Public Protector, the Courts have made damning findings against Mkhwebane, where her fitness to hold this vital post has been called into question numerous times.
The Constitutional Court found that she acted in bad faith and was not honest with the High Court regarding her investigation process in the Reserve Bank matter.
