Meeting about SABC Board
Parliament’s communications portfolio committee chairman Ismail Vadi adjourned the meeting in order for the MPs to whittle down the 230 public nominations.
Some of the ANC’s nominations include Jane Barret, Princess Setwayo, Tselane Tambo and Ben Ngubane.
Common names mentioned by opposition parties included former opposition party leader Fredrick Van Zyl Slabbert, veteran journalist Max Du Preez, journalist Pippa Green and academic Mamphele Ramphele.
Names sent in by the public — but who have not indicated acceptance of the nomination — include billionaire entrepreneur Mark Shutteworth, movie critic Barry Ronge, author Antjie Krog, radio personalities Tim Modise and John Perlman and opera singer Mimi Coertse.
The meeting will convene again later on Tuesday.
