Parliament's Communications Portfolio Committee has resolved to put on hold the shortlisting of candidates who were going to be interviewed to fill vacancies at the board of the SABC. This follows a heated discussion about whether or not to dissolve the current board as it does not form a quorum. The current board assumed office in 2017 but only four members are remaining, the other eight resigned. The committee has now decided to conduct exit interviews with the board members that resigned, raising concerns about when the cash-strapped public broadcaster will fill these vacancies.
