3. Mr J S Malema (EFF) to ask the President of the Republic:
With reference to his reply to question 4 on 20 February 2019, wherein he stated that he was not involved in fundraising for his campaign to become president of his political organisation, known as the CR17 campaign, but only met with potential funders at dinners organised by those leading the campaign, what are the details of (a) the persons in the Office of the President and the Cabinet who were involved in fundraising for his campaign and (b) the potential funders whom he met at each specified dinner as per his reply? NO1417E
REPLY:
Honourable Members,
Following the release of the Public Protector’s report into allegations against the President, there has been much interest in the country about the funding and operations of the CR17 campaign.
As I have already indicated, the Public Protector’s report is being taken on urgent judicial review and the courts will make a determination on the matter.
