R14M SPENT ON HALF-BUILT CLINIC IN RANDFONTEIN
R14.2 million has been spent on a half-built clinic in Randfontein on the West Rand that was supposed to be completed in July last year.
This is revealed by Gauteng Infrastructure Development MEC Nandi Mayathula-Khoza in a written reply to my questions in the Gauteng Legislature.
According to Mayathula-Khoza, construction on the Randgate clinic was stopped at 52% progress and the contract with the Pazimo/Mintiro Joint Venture was terminated due to non-performance and poor quality on site.
Construction started on 7 May 2013 and it was supposed to be completed on 7 October 2014.
The contractor has been paid R10 084 173, and consultants have been paid R4 111 638.
