South African Airways (SAA) has become profitable, Minister of Public Enterprises Pravin Gordhan has told Parliament, but as in the past, also claims he cannot provide further information due to legalities.
In a letter dated 20 January 2023 and seen by News24, Gordhan responds to questions raised by Parliament's Standing Committee on Public Accounts (Scopa) during a session on SAA in November 2022.
Gordhan says he cannot share SAA's income and losses since September 2021 as the audited financial statements for that period have yet to be finalised.
