BOKSBURG - About 90 African National Congress (ANC) members implicated in the Zondo State Capture Commission are undergoing the party’s internal disciplinary committee.
The ANC’s national executive committee (NEC) is meeting over three days at the Birchwood Hotel in Boksburg where, among other things, it will receive a report from its integrity commission.
The commission is a body within the party that handles members whose actions may have brought it into disrepute.
Energy Minister Gwede Mantashe and Sports Minister Zizi Kodwa are some of the senior ANC members occupying prominent positions in government despite being implicated by the State Capture Commission.
ANC secretary-general Fikile Mbalula said all 90 members had appeared before the Integrity Commission and their matters were now at the disciplinary committee stage.
He said the commission would be appearing before the NEC on Friday.
“What will be discussed in terms of the Integrity Commission is to finalise the terms of reference of the Integrity Commission is to table the step-aside guidelines as adopted by the previous NEC for affirmation by the new NEC.”
Mbalula said the integrity commission would also provide an update on new cases.
