President receives Nugent report | News Article
Former SARS Commissioner, Tom Moyane

The Nugent Commission of Inquiry into Tax Administration and Governance by SARS has submitted its final report to President Cyril Ramaphosa.


The Daily Maverick reports that the commission has made wide-ranging recommendations including the NPA's criminal prosecutions, the setting aside of contracts, the recovery of expenditure and that disgraced former Commissioner, Tom Moyane, foot his own legal bills. 

The Commission, chaired by retired Judge Robert Nugent, has recommended that the NDPP consider criminal prosecution for the awarding by Moyane of a contract to Bain & Co for the restructuring of SARS and which almost ultimately led to the revenue service’s collapse. 

Further recommendations are that National Treasury reviews procurement processes where multiple contracts were envisaged for a project by SARS to prevent abuse arising from “loss leaders” at the outset.
