The Speaker of the National Assembly, Mr Max Sisulu, has noted, with grave concern, recent reports in the media concerning the Public Protector, Ms Thuli Madonsela.
The Speaker, on behalf of the National Assembly wishes to state, categorically, that the Office of the Public Protector enjoys the full confidence of Parliament.
The Office of the Public Protector, like all other Chapter Nine organisations, is accountable to Parliament for its activities, as the Constitution prescribes. The Public Protector must be able to perform her functions without fear, favour or any hindrance.
Speaker will be meeting with the Minister of Police on this matter. At the request of Ms Madonsela, the Speaker will also be meeting with the Public Protector next week.
