Corruption Watch appeared on 9 February in the Constitutional Court as amicus curiae (friend of the court) in the application by the EFF and DA to enforce the public protector’s findings in the Nkandla report. Our focus in this matter is mainly on compliance by state officials and the president with the public protector’s remedial action. During today’s session Corruption Watch will make oral submissions on the status and scope of the public protector’s remedial powers and how organs of state are required to respond to the public protector’s remedial action.
