The Minister of Public Enterprises, Pravin Gordhan, met members of the Eskom Board whose term expired in 2021 and was extended subject to a review.

The Minister has been in constant engagements with the board on various matters pertaining to the current generation challenges and other energy related matters such as procurement, recruitment of former and experienced Eskom employees, and combating fraud and corruption.

On Tuesday, the Minister informed the board that a review has been finalised and that the Board will soon be reconstituted and restructured. The Board members will be informed of the outcome of the process.

Minister Gordhan thanked the current Board for their service during the most challenging period of the entity.

Government will soon deliberate on the reconstitution of a new and restructured Eskom Board and an announcement will be made in due course.
