Once the NEC has received the report of the integrity commission we will then be able to interact,\u201d ANC spokesperson Pule Mabe said.<\/p>\n<p>He could not be drawn into sharing the nature of the submissions made by Magashule to the commission.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is only when reports are finalised by the National Executive Committee that we are then able to deliberate further,\u201d said Mabe.<\/p>\n<p>On Friday, commission chairperson George Mashamba said that once the engagement (With Magashule) has been completed, they would issue a statement confirming that it has happened and outlining the process will be followed (in deciding the matter).<\/p>\n<p>Mashamba said: \u201cWe understand the level of public interest, not just among the membership of the ANC but in society at large, but are duty-bound to respect protocol and process to ensure an outcome that is in line with our mandate.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He stressed that the commission as a structure of the NEC is accountable to the body and respected its processes and procedures.<\/p>\n<p>In his political overview at the party\u2019s NEC meeting last weekend, ANC President Cyril Ramaphosa said that they had a direct instruction to renew the organisation; complete with a clear resolution on rebuilding the integrity and credibility of the ANC.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAt the NEC meeting of 28-30 August, we took firm and unequivocal decisions on the fight against corruption within our structures and across society. These decisions were drawn directly from the decisions of the 54th National Conference.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe described our stance as \u2018a line in the sand\u2019, representing our collective determination not to give any ground in fighting against corruption,\u201d said Ramaphosa.<\/p>\n<p>During that August NEC meeting, Ramaphosa asked leaders who had been charged with corruption to step aside in a move that he said was an indication of the ANC drawing a line between itself and those leaders who were corrupt.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cCadres of the ANC who are formally charged for corruption or other serious crimes must immediately step aside from all leadership positions in the ANC, legislatures or other government structures pending the finalisation of their cases,\u201d said Ramaphosa at the time.<\/p>\n<p>During the ANC\u2019s latest NEC meeting the party was presented with five legal opinions on whether party members charged with corruption could be forced to step aside and were presented to the NEC and deliberated by the governing party\u2019s top decision-making structure.<\/p>\n<p>Magashule had earlier said that only the branches of the ANC which had elected him would have the right to ask him to step aside.<\/p>\n<p><b>Political Bureau<\/b><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; South-Africa.
