Is SANDF Fit to Fight, Asks DA
THE Democratic Alliance (DA) yesterday asked Defence and Military Veterans Minister Lindiwe Sisulu to give an open briefing on the South African National Defence Force's (SANDF's) combat readiness.
Acting defence secretary Tsepe Motumi had said earlier that the briefing would have to be conducted in a closed session.
"The constitution requires that Parliament conduct its business in an open and transparent manner, and the public has a right to know how and to what effect billions of rands are being spent on the SANDF," the DA said.
