KWAZULU-NATAL - With no clear answers as to why thousands of teaching assistants have still not been paid, Parliament’s Portfolio Committee on Basic Education has now stepped in.
More than 300,000 assistants were recruited nationally to start work from December to March this year as part of government s R7 billion project.
But the employment initiative appears to have been poorly executed as provinces have been now asked to foot the salary bill.
