NATIONAL NEWS - South African Revenue Service (Sars) commissioner Tom Moyane has denied paying any bonus to top tax official Jonas Makwakwa.
Makwakwa was reinstated this month after a lengthy suspension, triggered by a Financial Intelligence Centre report about suspicious transactions in his accounts.
Makwakwa was, however, paid a bonus of nearly R1 million during the previous financial year before his suspension.
Moyane and Sars officials are appearing before Parliament’s Standing Committee on Finance.
"Jonas Makwakwa was not paid any bonus whatsoever in the year under review," the commissioner said.
