Ad Hoc Committee urges MPs to maintain confidentiality on Mkhwanazi inquiry report

The Ad Hoc Committee agreed on Friday that the report, which will contain draft findings, recommendations, and aspects of evidence - be circulated to enable MPs to go through it before it was considered by the committee at a formal meeting.

Members of Parliament serving on the Ad Hoc Committee probing the allegations by KwaZulu-Natal Police Commissioner Nhlanhla Mkhwanazi have been urged not to leak the draft report to be distributed to them not later than Monday.

This comes after the committee agreed on Friday that the report, which will contain draft findings, recommendations, and aspects of evidence, would be circulated to enable MPs to go through it before it was considered by the committee at a formal meeting.

The report will be circulated even though the overview report of evidence by evidence leaders is pending until next Friday.

Committee Chairperson, Soviet Lekganyane, said the report will shape their work and show their readiness as they move towards concluding their mandate.
