IQela eliphanda ngezonxibelelwano leANC lithe alihambisani nezicwangciso zikaMalatsi zokuvumela amasebe ukuba enze izicelo zokukhululwa ekusebenziseni iinkonzo zokuthengwa kwempahla kule arhente.
UMbutho we-African National Congress (ANC) ePalamente kunye noMphathiswa wezoNxibelelwano uSolly Malatsi usaqhuba ukungaboni ngasonye malunga nekamva le-Arhente yobuChwepheshe boLwazi loMbuso (i-SITA).
Iqela le ANC eliphanda ngezonxibelelwano lithe alihambisani nezicwangciso zikaMalatsi zokuvumela amasebe ukuba enze izicelo zokukhululwa ekusebenziseni iinkonzo zokuthengwa kwempahla kule arhente.
Kwiveki ephelileyo, uMalatsi uxelele iKomiti esi sigxina yePalamente ejongene neeAkhawunti zoLuntu (SCOPA) ukuba alikho isebe elinikelwe le mvume okwangoku.
Kodwa iANC ithe le migaqo iyangqubana nezicwangciso zokuphucula indlela yoshishino yeSITA. Kwingxelo, iANC ithe ukuvumela amasebe ukuba athenge iinkonzo ze-IT ngokuzimeleyo kwi-SITA kungakhokelela ekuphulukaneni nemisebenzi phantse kwisiqingatha sabasebenzi bayo abangaphezulu kwamawaka amathathu (3000) kwaye ekugqibeleni iyichithe le arhente. Intloko yeqela lokufunda ngonxibelelwano, iLungu lePalamente (MP) u-Imraan Subrathie, uthe lo mbutho ungathanda ukuba urhulumente abeke phambili ukuvuselela imodeli yeshishini le-SITA.
Ngelixa iAction SA iye yathandabuza ukusebenza kweSITA kulandela uluvo lophicotho-zincwadi olungafunwayo, uMalatsi uthi ukholelwa ukuba iSITA ingaphucula.
“Ukuba i-SITA ilungisa umba wotshintsho, eyona nto iphambili ekubandakanyeni abathengi bayo ukuqinisekisa ukuba awulindi ukunqongophala kwenkonzo kunye nokuphelelwa lixesha ngaphambi kokuba usabele kuloo nto, ndicinga ukuba iya kuhamba indlela ende, ekugcineni ubudlelwane nabaxumi.”
Nangona umphathiswa wesebe lezekhaya echaza ukuba ungowokuqala ukuqhawula amaqhina nequmrhu, uMalatsi uthe oku akukenzeki.
“Asikhange sinikwe amaphepha oqhawulo-mtshato okanye ngenye indlela.”
I-SITA ixelele iPalamente ukuba inikezela ngenkonzo kuphela malunga ne-37% yamasebe karhulumente, uninzi lwawo luthatha uxanduva lokulawula uthungelwano lwangaphakathi lwawo.
