The rebuilding of the South African Revenue Service SARS illustrates the value of commissions of inquiry. This is according to President Cyril Ramaphosas weekly letter to the nation.
Last week, the President visited the SARS Head Office to commend its staff and leadership for achieving the highest revenue collection in the tax authoritys history, by collecting R2.3 trillion in the last financial year.
He says this achievement, following the implementation of the recommendations of the 2018 Nugent Commission, shows what is possible with a clear mission, committed leadership and capable people.
