The relevant party has been requested to provide the outstanding information by 30 September 2013. Upon receipt of the information, the Public Protector will finalise the provisional report which will only be shared with affected parties.

The Public Protector will study the responses and integrate them to the extent possible in the final report. The responses will not be discussed or commented on as this undermines the integrity of the investigation as well as the Public Protector’s effectiveness. The Public Protector will only comment on the responses in the final report. The report will be made public after it has been finalised on a date to be determined by the Public Protector. End.
