The CEO of the Eastern Cape Gambling and Betting Board is a member of the board, Public Protector Thuli Madonsela has found.

"My finding is that he is a member of the board," she told reporters in Pretoria on Wednesday.

"I have only had to fix the future because the past is too far gone."

She was delivering her finding following an investigation into alleged maladministration with regard to the CEO's appointment. The board had claimed the CEO was not a board member.

Madonsela said board members had powers, and therefore ethical standards needed to be maintained.

She was speaking at the release of six reports into various complaints her office recently completed.

The Ngwathe local municipality in the Free State acted improperly by not paying a service provider for work he had done, Public Protector Thuli Madonsela has found.

"The complainant did the work he was supposed to and I find the conduct of the municipality to be improper and amounts to maladministration," she told reporters in Pretoria on Wednesday.

She requested that the contractor be paid for his services within 30 days.

She said her office had struggled to get answers from the municipality which had refused to pay the contractor, despite him providing a service. Madonsela referred to the complainant as "Mr X".

She was speaking at the release of six reports on various complaints brought to her office.
