KZN officials have their hands full trying to get rid of corruption within government's tender processes.
Earlier this month, Finance MEC Ina Cronje announced that they were doing a complete revamp of local government's "suppliers database." This means that all companies which were given tenders in all provincial departments will be evaluated over the next few months, to ensure that they meet the proper requirements and that there isn't any corruption involved. The process has started and officials have been holding meetings with business in northern KZN over the past few days. Finance spokesperson, Joyce Msutu says today they're in the Illembe district and they're also giving information to interested companies on how to go about getting on the database."We've got a new system that will be starting in July and we want to ensure that all suppliers of goods and services for provincial departments are registered on the supplier database. We've been to Zululand to Umkhanyakude District, Amajuba district and Sisonke District."
