DBES staff left to loiter

The parliamentary Public Accounts Committee (PAC) heard this yesterday after the Seliebi-Phikwe West MP Dithapelo Keorapetse asked the Permanent Secretary in the MIST, Dikagiso Mokotedi their intention about the situation at the DBES department.

“It is true that people in the DBES department have been idling for the past two years without doing any work which is due to the fact that we decided to outsource some minor maintenance. We decided that ministries should do the work for themselves which left most of the staff with less work to do,” said Mokotedi.
