Summary:

The Special Investigating Unit (SIU) has welcomed the disciplinary action taken against Tembisa Provincial Tertiary Hospital officials based on findings and recommendations made by the SIU. The Gauteng Department of Health has suspended six officials and three have already resigned or retired, citing allegations of corruption, fraud, and maladministration in supply chain management processes at the hospital. The SIU is empowered to institute civil action and refer evidence of criminal conduct to the National Prosecuting Authority (NPA) for further action. The SIU aims to recover financial losses suffered by state institutions and prevent future losses by identifying systematic failures and making recommendations for improvement.
