# The Gauteng Department of Health has been ordered by the Information Regulator to hand over records and audit reports linked to the alleged 2.3-billion-rand procurement scandal at Tembisa Hospital. The ruling followed a legal application by News24 seeking access to documents including contracts and payments. The statutory data protection and access watchdog has given the hospital ten working days, or face criminal prosecution. The matter has drawn significant public attention amid allegations of corruption, financial mismanagement and the death of whistleblower Babita Deokaran.
