The terms of reference for the latest Commission of Inquiry into the controversial arms deal are set to be announced tomorrow morning.

Justice Department spokesperson Tlali Tlali says this will spell out the scope of the inquiry, as well as the powers of the new Commission.

Supreme Court of Appeals judge Willie Seriti was appointed earlier this week to chair the Commission.

He will be joined by Willem van der Merwe and Francis Legodi; both of whom currently serve in the North Gauteng High Court.
