The previous board, in a statement released on 28 April 2009, stated: “The Board also decided to review the appointment of the COO and accordingly referred the matter back to the Acting Minister of Communications, Dr Manto Tshabalala-Msimang. This is done in order to ensure that the Minister applies her mind to the original recommendation of the previous board. The Board believes that this will assist in finalising the appointment of the COO for the SABC - a position that has been vacant since 2007.”
This position still stands, and no decision has been made as yet. Once the matter has been finalised, the SABC will communicate officially.
