The Director-General in the Department of Public Works appears to be in hot water with a Parliamentary Committee.
Advocate Sam Vukela is one of the officials who have been implicated in a forensic investigation report by Pricewaterhouse Coopers on the fraudulent contract, management and payment irregularities for state funerals.
These include the funerals of late ANC stalwart Winnie Madikizela-Mandela, Dr Zweli Skweyiya and Ambassador Billy Modise.
The Standing Committee on Public Accounts says it expects a full report from the Minister of Public Works in a fortnight.
Chairperson Mkhululeko Hlengwa says they will also be seeking legal advice on what steps can be taken.
The committee has also directed the Minister to interact with the President in so far as the disciplinary processes of the Director-General within this period of 14 days are concerned.
