Independent Democrats Deputy Leader Simon Grindrod has today called on new Western Cape Premier Lynne Brown to urgently end the uncertainty and confusion surrounding the appointment of new MECs to her provincial cabinet.

The ID says currently there are no ministers in charge of critical portfolios such as Finance and Tourism, Economic Development and Environmental Affairs and uncertainty surrounds who exactly is managing other departments critical to service delivery.

The party deputy says, failure to appoint vacancies in the cabinet results in a lack of decision making and impacting on service delivery.

Grindrod adds that, “the Premier must worry more about service delivery and less about the problems in the ANC which are obviously causing delays in appointing new Ministers.”
