Civil rights organisation AfriForum has brought an application in terms of the Promotion of Access to Information Act against the Department of Water and Sanitation (DWS), seeking access to the work permits of 31 Cuban engineers employed by the DWS. AfriForum reports that Water and Sanitation Minister Nomvula Mokonyane has extended the engineers’ contracts, despite rumours that the department is bankrupt. “AfriForum is going to compare the experience and qualifications of the Cuban engineers to that of South African engineers who could rather have been employed to do the same quality of work at an affordable, market-related remuneration package.
