Trade union UASA has demanded that Public Enterprises Minister Pravin Gordhan clarify issues regarding the nonpayment of employees at the State-owned Denel defence industrial group. It has done so by means of a letter to the Minister. Many Denel staff have not received their full pay and benefits since August last year, in spite of rulings by the Labour Court that Denel had to pay them. In the letter, the union also demanded clarity about the government’s response to the recent application by two other companies for the liquidation of Denel. The companies concerned are Saab Grintek Defence and SME Infratech, and their application is set to be heard in the Gauteng High Court in Pretoria on October 11.
