No calls in Cabinet for Dlamini's head to roll - Radebe
16 March 2017
Cape Town – There were no calls in Cabinet for Social Development Minister Bathabile Dlamini’s head to roll, Minister in the Presidency Jeff Radebe said on Thursday.
The minister refused to be drawn on the discussions, as they were private, he said.
While the ministerial task team will be reviewing the South African Social Security Agency's (Sassa) conduct on the actions and inactions surrounding the payment of grants, Dlamini’s conduct is not in the spotlight.
Briefing media on Thursday following a Cabinet meeting, Radebe ducked and dived from questions about Dlamini’s responsibility in the crisis, and said this could only be discussed later.
