The Democratic Alliance is to table a
motion of censure against Chairperson of the Portfolio Committee on Police and
ANC MP, Annelize van Wyk.
DA MP of Police Dianne Kohler Barnard said
Van Wyk failed to disclose critical information with respect to the feedback
received on the job killing Private Security Industry Regulation Act Amendment
Bill.
“I will be tabling a motion of censure
against Ms Van Wyk at the first available opportunity,” Barnard added.
Barnard also said that the DA has been
informed that letters from international embassies critiquing the bill and its
violation of South African commitments under the World Trade Organisation,
including article XVI and XVII of the General Agreement on Trade Services were
submitted to Parliament but never tabled before the committee.
She concluded by saying that a Committee Chairperson hiding key information from a Portfolio Committee is equally inexplicable and inexcusable.
