BUSINESS NEWS - Parliament's portfolio committee on Public Enterprises has urged Eskom’s new board to lay criminal charges against some of its officials and to avoid back door deals with business people and politicians.
The committee met with the new 13-member board and acting CEO Phakamani Hadebe on Thursday in order to establish a good working relationship.
Eskom has vowed to turn things around, but the committee says it has been sold this story before.
Eskom's new chairperson Jabu Mabuza and Hadebe tried to convince the portfolio committee that they are committed to change, highlighting some of the steps they have already taken, including removing eight officials in 10 days.
