Sanral yet to act on top officials suspended more than 6 months ago

Two top officials of the SA National Roads Agency (Sanral) remain suspended on full pay after more than six months without being afforded a disciplinary hearing. 

The two - Inge Mulder (the chief financial officer) and Inba Thumbrian (head of supply chain management) - are career civil servants with impeccable service records. 

Sanral said in August that the two had failed to implement a resolution of the Sanral board. The resolution requires that in tenders above R1 billion, the consulting engineering firm that designs the tender document must not be included in the tender evaluation. This is an unusual deviation from standard practice.
