The African Democratic Party has welcomed the announcement that the security cluster ministers` must cover the legal fees for the public protector.

This comes after the ministers filed a court application in trying to stop the release of the Nkandla report by the public protector.

Police Minister Nathi Mthethwa on Thursday announced they are dropping their court application.

ACDP Parliamentary Leader Wayne Thring said it is so bad that the taxpayers will have to pay for these legal fees.

Thring for the cluster ministers to go to court to try to stop the Public Protector’s report from being released was unexpected but the ACDP welcomes the fact that the ministers have been ordered to pay the bill.
