# The Government Employees Medical Scheme has placed its principal official, Stan Moloabi, on precautionary suspension pending an internal administrative process. Board chairperson Nomzamo Tutu says the suspension is an interim measure to allow the process to proceed independently and fairly. She stresses it should not be interpreted as a finding of misconduct or wrongdoing. The development comes amid sustained pressure over GEMS’ contribution increases. The scheme covers over 2.4-million public servants and their dependants. Moloabi confirmed his suspension, but said he could not comment further.
