Women Affairs boss defends dress code directive

She told Mmegi yesterday that the directive dated March 19, is not  addressed to women but targets all civil servants. "It is straight forward and has nothing that is new. It is not biased against women," she said.

Legwaila explained that the dress code has been in the general orders and they now want to enforce it. "I don't see a problem with it. We just have to make sure that it is widely available to all the government employees for them to dress appropriately," she said.
