Motshekga wants special unit to handle school infrastructure

According to Motshekga, giving the infrastructure responsibility to the department of public works had proved fruitless because when it failed to do its job"there are strange rules in government that you cannot take another department to court even when public works fails me".

"I had a meeting with education officials from provinces and we agreed we have a lot of ongoing challenges around infrastructure. Public works is our client, DBSA is our client and costs are very high," said Motshekga. "It might cost a lot of money to set up another administration when there is public works already in existence, but it is something that we must debate."

"Education should not play a central role … we should focus on our core business, the rest should go elsewhere," she further added.

When stupid people meet they call her boss , just more ANC comrades looking for jobs , this useless thing destroyed education in SA , the 30% Queen

This is the best thing I've heard from you. Can we take up this matter to parliament already. Can we setup this unit in a similar way SASSA office has been setup

U mama may have just solved our school infrastructure problems with this one statement.

Maybe she's on to something, let's give her chance to give the 'layout'...

Public works is useless. I repeat useless.
