SAA bailout doesn’t exist, DA must provide ‘evidence’ for allegations – Mboweni

‘… this bailout thing you talk about does not exist. It only exists in your mind,’ the finance minister tweeted to the DA’s spokesperson on finance, Geordin Hill-Lewis.

This after the main opposition party announced on Friday that it had filed an urgent interdict application in the North Gauteng High Court in Pretoria to prevent any money for SAA coming from “emergency” funding, by means of a provision in the Public Finance Management Act. “Courts are very important, powerful, respected and central institutions with decorum over the ages. They have developed doctrines such as=‘Do not waste the court’s time with trivial/small issues.’ So the @geordinhl SAA interdict might fall under this. But we meet in court. Right?” the tweet read.

“But Chief @geordinhl, this bailout thing you talk about does not exist. It only exists in your mind. Where is the evidence for this allegation. I do not know about this,” the tweet read.
