Gordhan in China to fast-track locomotives, spares delivery to Transnet
Public Enterprises Minister Pravin Gordhan has embarked on a previously announced official trip to China.
He is leading a delegation to meet with his counterparts in the Chinese government as part of efforts to fast-track the delivery of locomotives and spare parts by the Chinese State-owned CRRC e-Loco to South African rail operator Transnet Freight Rail.
Gordhan is hopeful that talks with his Chinese counterparts will yield positive results in the interest of both State-owned companies and, in particular, ensure effective and efficient South African logistics and network services for the benefit of country’s economy, the Department of Public Enterprises (DPE) notes in a statement.

The Standing Committee on Public Accounts (SCOPA) has rescheduled meetings arising out of former Eskom Group CE André de Ruyter’s appearance before the committee owing to the unavailability of some of the people required for the meetings.
