# National Treasury has launched a forensic investigation into allegations of improper conduct involving a former senior employee. This follows evidence at the Madlanga Commission that former procurement officer Molefe Fani improperly influenced the awarding of multi-billion-rand transversal contracts. Transversal contracts are large procurement agreements managed by the Office of the Chief Procurement Officer on behalf of multiple government departments. Treasury says the investigation will test the veracity of the allegations made and, importantly, determine any measures needed to further strengthen the procurement and award processes within the transversal contracting system.
