‘No band-aid can fix IDAC – disband it,’ says DA’s Breytenbach
These are the sentiments of DA MP Glynnis Breytenbach, whose party wants the Investigating Directorate Against Corruption (Idac) disbanded, and an anti-corruption commission independent of the National Prosecuting Authority (NPA) set up to tackle corruption.
So, established outside of the National Prosecuting Authority, established by its own statute, as a Chapter 9 institution, so that it has true independence and that it cannot be dissolved unless it’s by a very heightened majority in parliament, which no party will ever see again.
It must be disbanded, and we must now set up a truly independent anti-corruption body that will have all of the capacity it needs to go after corruption in the true sense.
