South Africa: Minister, Deputy Minister and Director General a No Show At Annual Report Briefing

press release

This morning, the Minister, Deputy Minister and Director General of Health all failed to appear before the Health Portfolio Committee. The three, who are reported to be abroad, were due to brief the committee on the department's annual report.

While the briefing is still going ahead, it is rendered largely redundant by the absence of the three people who are primarily responsible for the performance of the department.
