Deputy correctional services minister Thabang Makwetla slammed despite 'doggedly refusing' to accept Bosasa security upgrades at his home
Makwetla disagreed with this view and indicated that he had pleaded with Watson to send him the bill - and even indicated that he had intended to escalate the matter to the ANC and national president at the time, Jacob Zuma. However, due to the difficult environment that had played out in the party, it had become virtually impossible for him to do so, reads the report.
It recommended a fine equal to 30 days' salary and that Makwetla apologise in the house for not acting in accordance with the public trust placed in him. He charged that the conclusions of the ethics committee seemed to have ignored or disregarded all the information and supporting documents placed before it pertaining to the matter.
