Public Protector confirms Hlasela report to be released tomorrow─── CATHY DLODLO 10:21 Wed, 04 May 2016
Bloemfontein - Public Protector, Thuli Madonsela has confirmed to OFM News that the long-awaited report on Operation Hlasela, a multimillion rand service delivery project established by Free State Premier Ace Magashule, will be released tomorrow.
Madonsela's spokesperson, Kgalalelo Masibi, said the report is part of three investigation reports to be released.
The Hlasela report follows an investigation into the controversial project that started more than four years ago. A request submitted by all the opposition parties in the Legislature at the time sparked the investigation.
Madonsela’s office said the scope of the investigation included the nature of the project, whether public funds were used, who was meant to account for the funds and whether tender procedures were followed.
Masibi said all the reports set to be released tomorrow focus on complaints regarding the alleged failure to separate state and party.
