EFF won’t support Mkhwebane’s removal through parliamentary process
through a parliamentary process. Parliament has approved a Democratic Alliance request for a process for the possible removal of Mkhwebane to start.
In December, the institution adopted new rules governing the removal heads of Chapter 9 institutions. In terms of the rules, the process kicks off when the Speaker of the National Assembly agrees to the motion. An independent panel of experts will be appointed to establish if prima facie evidence exists, after which an ad-hoc committee of Parliament will take the matter further.Mkhwebane has challenged the rules, calling them unlawful and unconstitutional.EFF Member of Parliament Mbuyiseni Ndlozi says all points of view must be heard.
“We should be taking into consideration any criticism from the public, including the PP , about the removal of people heading Chapter 9 institutions. To that extent, we don’t think there is anything wrong she is doing. I am saying the trap we are avoiding is the one that this entire process is drawing attention to – the removal of the PP and we are opposed to that.”The people say!
