The Hendler commission of enquiry that was investigating the management of the royalties and or income derived from mining companies and alleged activities of corruption and maladministration of the funds of the Rakotea community near Brits is to resume with public hearings today, the office of the premier in the North West confirmed on Sunday.

Spokesman for Premier Thandi Modise, Lesiba Kgwele said the continuation of the commission of enquiry with its original terms was approved by the premier.

Kgwele said the Commission was started by the then Premier Edna Molewa in 2008.

“It had adjourned in 2010 after advocate Shimla resigned from the commission on the grounds that he had joined government from the private sector, and could not proceed in his role as leader of evidence without his impartiality being an issue” Kgwele added.
