9 February 2026- The North West MEC for Community Safety and Transport Management, Wessels Morweng will brief the media regarding the findings and directives of the South African Human Rights Commission (SAHRC) over its investigation into scholar transport challenges. This comes after the SAHRC has released an investigative inquiry into scholar transport challenges in the North West.
Morweng said the SAHRC Report released in January 2026, follows an inquiry impelled by widespread and persistent concerns relating to the safety, reliability, accessibility and adequacy of scholar transport in the province. He said the Report has directed on what should be done to ensure safety of learners is not compromised.
“So, we will be addressing the media on the remedial action the department will be embarking upon as per the findings and directives of the SAHRC Report.
“The media briefing will be held at MEC’s Boardroom, Tirelo Building in Mmabatho at 10am,” said Morweng.
