ActionSA says Kieswetter is the right person to head up the new police panel

# ActionSA says former South African Revenue Service commissioner, Edward Kieswetter, is the right person to chair the newly established Police Advisory Panel. The panel’s primary mandate is to evaluate progress on the police’s reset agenda and accelerate the implementation of recommendations from the Madlanga Commission. The commission has heard testimony of corruption and criminal infiltration in the higher structures of SAPS. ActionSA says Kieswetter is well placed to help professionalise and rebuild the police service, much like the role he played in restoring SARS into a capable and respected institution.
