SERIOUS concerns over governance failures, financial mismanagement, and the Road Accident Fund's (RAF) long-term sustainability has led Parliament to initiate a comprehensive inquiry into the institution.

- KAMOGELO MOICHELA

This was confirmed at a sitting of the Standing Committee on Public Accounts (Scopa) in Cape Town yesterday - a watershed moment for road accident victims, medical service providers, and legal professionals who have long suffered under the fund’s mismanagement.

Scopa will investigate the financial state of the RAF, including irregular, wasteful, and fruitless expenditure, the legality and transparency of RAF accounting policies and reporting systems and the operational impact of recent decisions.
