Former Gauteng Health MEC Qedani Mahlangu has admitted to the Life Esidimeni inquest that she had no knowledge of how the transfer project would be implemented after making the decision that would later have deadly consequences.
It s understood that the final decision to terminate the Esidimeni service agreement contract was made in two key meetings between the Gauteng health department and the premier s office.
The meeting among the families comes amid the ongoing inquest that will determine if anyone should be held criminally liable for the death of 144 mental health patients in 2016.
