Gov officials may no longer do business with state─── 08:30 Sat, 20 Dec 2014
Cape Town - President Jacob Zuma has signed into law the Public Administration Management Act of 2014.
As part of promoting professional ethics and integrity by employees, the act prohibits public servants from conducting business with the State or being a director of a public or private company that conducts business with government.
Failure to comply with this prohibition constitutes serious misconduct, which may result in the termination of employment by the employer.
The Act also requires employees to disclose their financial interests.
This Act will take effect on a date still to be determined.
