Parliament’s legal advisers have warned that Tuesday’s debate on the section 89 panel report into the Phala Phala saga may have to be postponed if President Cyril Ramaphosa takes the report on review.

A special chief whips' forum sat on Monday morning and was advised that if Ramaphosa goes to court to challenge the report, the matter will be sub judice and may not be discussed or adopted by the house.

Sources said the special meeting was convened to discuss preparations for Tuesday’s sitting. A chief whips' forum is closed to the public and usually sits on Wednesdays when parliament is in session. A source who attended Monday’s meeting said: “In the main, the meeting discussed the issue of voting and the high probability it will be deemed sub judice if he does take it on review.”

The meeting also discussed National Assembly speaker Nosiviwe Mapisa-Nqakula’s decision to decline the DA’s request for aOpposition whips were not convinced and requested an urgent meeting of the National Assembly programming committee, where Mapisa-Nqakula will formally and publicly explain her reasons for declining the proposal made last week by DA chief whip Siviwe Gwarube.
