DA drags ANC to court over cadre deployment
The DA has filed legal papers against the ANC in an attempt to have the party’s policy of cadre deployment declared unconstitutional and unlawful.
DA leader John Steenhuisen addressed the media after filling court papers outside the High Court in Pretoria on Friday morning
Steenhuisen said the governing party’s policy to reward loyal members has come at the cost of delivery for the rest of South Africa
“By replacing cadre deployment with merit-based appointments we will be able to replace SA’s failing, captured state institutions with capable and professional institutions able to deliver quality services to all.”
The opposition party wants the policy scrapped from the ANC‘s books.
“On Wednesday, the DA presented our End Cadre Deployment Bill to Parliament’s portfolio committee on public service and administration,” said Steenhuisen.
“It is designed to enforce merit-based appointments throughout the public service while making it illegal for politicians to work in the public administration.”
