Parliament notes with great concern reports of threats made against several Members of Parliament and a staff member involved in the Portfolio Committee on Public Enterprises' inquiry into governance at Eskom.

They include Members of Parliament Ms Zukiswa Rantho and Ms Natasha Mazzone and the committee’s evidence leader Advocate Ntuthuzelo Vanara.

Deputy Speaker of the National Assembly Mr Lechesa Tsenoli said: “It is completely unacceptable to attack a Member or an official of Parliament for carrying out the legitimate work of a committee of the Legislature. We fully support the Members and officials of all parliamentary committees who are doing the work of Parliament, as defined by the Constitution.”

Parliament wishes to reassure the public that it is setting in motion certain processes to, amongst others, address the concerns and safety of those conducting the inquiry and the inviolability of the inquiry itself.
