NEWS: Concern over reports that Minister Tina Joemat-Pettersson signed the latest nuclear agreement with Russia in secret

The Democratic Alliance says it is extremely concerned over reports that the Minister of Energy, Tina Joemat-Pettersson,  signed the latest nuclear agreement with Russia in secret and without the involvement of other departmental or diplomatic staff in attendance.

In addition, the DA’s investigations have revealed that the Minister may not have consulted with the Office of the State Law Advisor at the  Department of International Relations and Cooperation.

The DA says this would be in violation of the terms of procedure for concluding international agreements.
