Previous Lottery board and management ignored corruption investigations, Parliament hears
Out of 15 damning independent forensic reports into the National Lotteries Commission, some involving executives and board members, only two were ever fully implemented.
When a new board and executive were appointed, a search for the investigative reports, which had cost millions of rands, was initiated. Smith told the committee that he had been"building up a relationship" with the Hawks."I have been interacting with a general at the Hawks who, he said, were"instituting a project to look at all NLC cases".that the Hawks had set up a special unit to investigate NLC cases. It is unclear what happened with this initiative.
Fusion was a new IT management platform introduced at the NLC around 2015. It did not work properly and staff were forced to navigate between the old and the new system because certain functions worked better in the old system.
