The Democratic Alliance has labeled the
investigation by the Powers and Privileges Committee into the disciplinary
hearing into the conduct of 20 Economic Freedom Fighters Members of Parliament
as a political hatchet job by the ANC.
DA representative of the Powers and
Privileges Committee Annelie Lotriet said the process followed during this
investigation was completely flawed.
Lotriet said
the DA, UDM and IFP – rejects the PPC report on
the events of 21 August. The PPC investigation was little more than a political
hatchet job by the ANC aimed at achieving a predetermined outcome.
Lotriet said we have produced a report that
scrutinizes the flaws in the investigation.
“This report will form the basis of a
Private Member’s Bill to amend the Powers, Privileges and Immunities of
Parliament and Provincial Legislatures Act of 2004, to ensure that the PPC is
fair and unbiased in future Lotriet added.
