Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 69854, member: 636"] The Democratic Alliance has accused the African National Congress caucus in Dihlabeng Municipality of ignoring a Labour Court judgment. DA Councillor Hilton Maasdorp stated that the ANC's failure to comply within the mandated thirty-day period demonstrates a disregard for the rule of law and perpetuates irregular expenditure. The court ruled in favor of five municipal workers on long-term contracts, ordering the municipality to regularize their employment status. This situation has contributed to significant irregular spending, with the municipality allocating over three million rand monthly for these salaries. The DA reported it successfully united opposition parties to support implementing the judgment, but the ANC majority has not acted. This inaction occurs amid broader concerns over the municipality's financial management, which auditors have previously criticized. [/QUOTE]
