The DA is calling on Health Minister Dr Aaron Motsoaledi to take urgent remedial action to clear the backlog in blood alcohol and toxicology samples at the 3 forensic chemical laboratories in Cape Town, Johannesburg and Pretoria.

DA Minister of Health Dr Wilmot James says there are not enough machines to do the toxicology test.

He further suggested the Health Minister should take urgent action to provide the necessary resources.

Wilmot also elaborated that this would clear the accumulated backlog in blood alcohol and toxicology samples.
