QUESTIONS FOR WRITTEN REPLY
QUESTION 1237
Mr. A Louw (DA) to ask the Minister of Labour:
The DA notes with great interest that big State Owned Enterprises such as
SAA make use of labour brokers.
1. Whether he has discussed his intention to outlaw labour brokers with
state-owned enterprises (SOEs) and government departments that
currently make use of their services; if not, why not; if so, what
were the outcomes of such discussions in each case? .NW1579E
WRITTEN REPLY
I have not discussed any intentions about labour brokers with the
State Owned Enterprises because the results of the study commissioned
by the department of Labour on the extent of atypical forms of
employment in South Africa were tabled at Nedlac in 2004.The State
Owned Enterprises are aware of this because they are represented by
their different constituencies at Nedlac.Discusions are currently
taking place at Nedlac.
