Further delay to release of final state capture report
The Presidency has confirmed a further delay in the official handover ceremony of the fifth and final report of the commission of inquiry into state capture.
President Cyril Ramaphosa was supposed to receive the hard copy at the Union Buildings on Monday.
He has since asked for the postponement of the official ceremony.
"This morning, President Ramaphosa and the Chief Justice discussed the timing of the handing over of the final Commission report. A new date and time for the handover will be announced soon," said the Presidency’s spokesperson Vincent Magwenya.
The full report was supposed to be sent to the president's office electronically on Sunday.
During the Judicial Service Commission interview for the deputy chief justice in Sandton on Monday, Chief Justice Raymond Zondo confirmed that he received a message that the president wanted to "speak to him urgently".
