Helen Zille to take Sunday paper to the Press Ombudsman
Lusanda Bill
15 August 2011
Western Cape Premier Helen Zille has denied a Sunday newspaper report that her office awarded a communications tender worth one-billion-Rands to an advertising agency without following proper procedures.
Zille intends laying a complaint against the Sunday Times with the Press Ombudsman.
Zille added that they chose deliberately not to present the facts as presented to them.
The paper reported that the tender for the contract had not been publicly advertised or placed on the government tender bulletin, as is required by Treasury Regulations.
