Brown urges recapitalisation of SA Express amid questions over waste

South African Express CEO Victor Xaba was forced to concede on Wednesday that the loss-making airline did not take firm enough action on irregular spending, after Public Enterprises Minister Lynne Brown reiterated that it needed a cash injection from the State. “Let’s say in all fairness not enough was done in terms of consequence management. I just want to concede that, ” Xaba told Parliament’s watchdog Standing Committee on Public Accounts (Scopa).
