'NONCOMPLIANT': DEPARTMENTS AT EACH OTHER'S THROATS
The department of justice (DOJ) has spent the weekend trying to convince the department of employment and labour (DEL) to not shut down the "non-compliant" Mpumalanga High Court building.
The squabble between the two organs of state started about two weeks ago when the DEL inspections revealed the R1.1 billion four-story building in Mbombela, which accommodates DOJ and National Prosecuting Authority employees, failed to meet the occupational health and safety standards.
After further investigation, DEL issued a prohibition order, instructing the department to shut down the building and evacuate the employees immediately, but the DOJ continued to operate.
DEL inspector-general Aggy Moiloa said the structure was hazardous, with "malfunctioning toilets, electrical issues, damaged ceiling boards and leaking roofs".
