$\"NewsHub\"$ Makwakwa and his girlfriend\u201a Kelly-Ann Elskie\u201a a SARS employee\u201a are under investigation for \u00ab\u00a0suspicious and unusual\u00a0\u00bb bank transactions.
Gordhan\u2019s comments in a series of written replies on Thursday to questions in Parliament by DA finance spokesman David Maynier attest to the breakdown in relations between the minister and Moyane which Judge Dennis Davis \u2014 who heads up the Davis Tax Committee \u2014 has previously described as \u00ab\u00a0intolerable\u00a0\u00bb.
Gordhan highlighted a number of Moyane\u2019s failures\u201a such as his neglect in taking immediate action when he was informed by the Financial Intelligence Centre (FIC) about the R1.2m in deposits made into Makwakwa\u2019s bank accounts and R450\u201a000 into Elskie\u2019s.
There was also his failure to report the Makwakwa matter timeously to Gordhan as the minister responsible for SARS.
Gordhan also voiced his concern over the \u00ab\u00a0lack of accountability and co-operation\u00a0\u00bb from top SARS management and said he was considering the strengthening of their accountability obligations.
Gordhan believes it is vital to know why Moyane took more than four months after receiving the information from the FIC in May before taking action\u201a and then only when the matter was reported in the media.
This knowledge was necessary in order to protect the reputation of SARS\u201a he said.
