Deputy Commissioner Mahlaule

Advocate Baloyi pointed out that since Director Malatji was appointed by Deputy Commissioner Mahlaule to represent the APSS department in the tender, Malatji is the client with a direct interest and responsibility for the tender, and it is difficult to accept he does not know why the tender runs into problems.

“this is a tender for his department, APSS, and he appoints you to be the representative, to be the person that deals with it, but you are the client ... it runs into problems ... you do not know anything about it ... You are the one that is responsible for this service. You are the one with a direct interest to get this tender finalised.”
