Public Protector investigator Livhuwani Tshiwalule, who was involved in the PP Reserve Bank investigation is testifying before the Section 194 Committee.
Evidence leader Nazreen Bawa SC says is taking the inquiry through certain of the rulings given in relation to the CIEX Reserve Bank matter – where public protector Busisiwe Mkhwebane unlawfully sought to amend the mandate of the Reserve Bank.
She had also ordered Absa to pay R1.1-billion for an apartheid-era bailout provided to its predecessor Bankorp by the Reserve Bank.
Her findings were contested by the Reserve Bank and Absa, which applied to the court for the report to be set aside and to declare that Mkhwebane had abused her powers. They succeeded in that application.
