JOHANNESBURG – Communications Minister Solly Malatsi has withdrawn the SABC Bill.
He says extensive stakeholder engagements revealed that the bill, in its current form, does not serve the long-term interests of the SABC or the South African public.
The public broadcaster has been facing long-standing financial challenges and operational losses.
The minister argues that the bill does not adequately address the broadcaster’s challenges, including its ability to sustain itself and deliver on its mandate.
Media Monitoring Africa director, William Bird discussed this with eNCA.
