Empowering Parliamentarians to break the Cycle of Corruption-opinion piece He...John Hyde
1) Members of Parliament play a key role in combating corruption through legislation and advocacy. They can establish independent anti-corruption agencies and advocate for anti-corruption practices within government and society.
2) However, simply talking about anti-corruption is not enough; MPs must genuinely believe in it and take ownership of implementation. They should ensure anti-corruption agencies are properly funded and independent.
3) Differences in anti-corruption agencies across Australian states can be traced to the priorities of establishing parliamentarians. The effectiveness of an agency starts with its enabling legislation.

R2K calls on NPA to speed up prosecutions of all implicated in Marikana massacre
1. Statement: R2K calls on the NPA to speed
up the prosecutions of all those implicated
in the Marikana massacre!
August 16, 2020
Busi Mtabane
The commemoration of the Marikana massacre continues and it remains eight years of denied
justice for the families of the murdered miners. Very little if not nothing has changed since
the tragedy that occurred all those years ago. To this day, no one has been held to account for
what transpired in Marikana, neither the political heads, nor the police.
The lack of political will, uninspiring prosecutorial process in holding those responsible
accountable paints a bleak picture on our democracy and the ability of government to deliver
justice for mostly working and poor classes of our society.
Not only has the government failed to hold those responsible accountable, the government
has also failed to transform, even after the recommendations made by a panel of experts, the
manner in which our Police conducted themselves during this unfortunate incident. If we are
to avert such tragedies like what happened in Marikana from happening, we bear the
responsibility to ensure the implementation of the recommendations to transform the Public
Order Policing to address the inadequacies as highlighted by the Panel of Experts report.
The Farlam Commission had recommended that the Police Service introduce training to
improve its Public Order Policing as well as establish and increase the Public Order Policing
units in light of the increasing protests in our country.
The systemic challenges facing the South African Police Service stubbornly persist to this
day, pointing once again to the lack of political will to take corrective measures in order to
avert tragedies where police are implicated from happening.
The report raised the issues around lack of skills and equipment needed in line with crowd
management and crowd control.
We still seeing an inadequate number of properly trained Public Order Policing units
to respond to the growing community unrests witnessed in our communities
The recommendations having not been implemented, we remain with an inadequately
trained POP and that raises concerns about the potential for the police to continue to
conduct themselves in a manner that is inconsistent with the law.
What we are witnessing instead since the Marikana massacre to this day, is the glaring
training inadequacies that persist within the Public Order Policing. Very little has changed in
terms of the training of police and establishment of more well trained Public Order Policing
units. What we instead are witnessing is a continuation of violent and repressive response
from the police when in relation to protests in the country.
2. It remains a concern for us that since the report was tabled in 2018, the report is yet to be
made public rather than gathering dust in the minister’s office.
If we are to believe in the functionality of our democracy, where accountability, transparency
remain important values, the ministry has to swiftly act in the interest of the public and
release the report.
We therefore reiterate our call that in order for the police to inspire any public confidence in
the Police Service, in accordance with our democratic values of transparency and
accountability, that the minister of police should:
Release and make public, the panel of experts’ report into policing in Marikana
Implement the recommendations as detailed in the report while providing a progress
report on how far the ministry has attempted to implement the recommendation if at
all and what the next plan is for ensuring that transformation happens
Publicly pledge and commit himself to ensuring implementing the recommendations
Publicise resource allocation with clear timelines and report mechanisms to ensure the
transformation as required
It is disillusioning that to this day, only a few of those implicated have stood trial and the
matter has not reached its finality. Whilst we appreciate that there are some who are facing
prosecution, we remain concerned that the large chunk of those involved are not facing
charges for their role in the massacre.
We call on the NPA to speed up the prosecutions of all those implicated, especially all the
police that IPID recommended be indicted. We have seen hardly no one whatsoever, being
held to account for the massacre that remains a painful dent on our young democracy.
We remain committed to challenging the establishment for the increase in the militarized
policing response of the police towards protests and dissent in our country since the Marikana
massacre. We cannot continue to have protesters suffering injuries and at times death at the
hands of those who are meant to serve and protect them.
