About this episode
COSATU urges politicians to let the Public Investment Corporation Board conduct its oversight without interference amid ongoing investigations.
COSATU has called on politicians to allow the Public Investment Corporation, PIC Board to complete its oversight work without interference. The federation says it is concerned about alleged attempts to disrupt investigations into suspended CEO, Patrick Dlamini and PIC deals including Acapulco and Lanseria Airport. COSATU has welcomed the Board's referral of the Acapulco matter to the SIU and is urging President Ramaphosa to issue a proclamation for a full probe with the Hawks and Auditor-General. We spoke to Matthew Parks, COSATU's Parliamentary Coordinator.
