However, the tribunal said the R2.425m debt that the Special Investigating Unit sought from a number of former SABC executives, including Hlaudi Motsoeneng, to pay back to the public broadcaster had become prescribed.was compiled by Motsoeneng, who was then COO. The payments were meant for artists who supported the SABC but did not receive needle time royalties before 1996. Only 53 of the 180 music legends on the list were paid before the project was stopped.
The SABC and the SIU sought to recover the R50,000 payments, from the then SABC executives, in the proceedings before the tribunal. The SABC said if the 2016 decision to pay was not inquired into by the tribunal, it might be obliged to honour payments to the remaining music legends on the list. In their arguments, the SIU and SABC alleged that the public broadcaster did not have a policy on which the payment decision was based. They argued that by making this decision, the former executives collectively acted in flagrant disregard of the SABC’s internal policies, they were recklessly and grossly negligent in the performance of their duties and abused their power as SABC executives. They said that, as a result, the SABC incurred wasteful and reckless expenditure.
Motsoeneng raised a number of arguments, including the fact that the matter did not fall within the mandate of the SIU. Motsoeneng also said the matter was stillborn because he was not acting in his personal capacity, but on behalf of the SABC.
