Summary

Action SA is slamming the Road Accident Fund for paying suspended employees a staggering R29 million — averaging R1.82 million each — while they’re not working, calling it a glaring governance failure and a betrayal of taxpayers who fund the scheme to help accident victims. With some suspensions dating back to 2024 and three staff off the clock for over a year, the party accuses the RAF of systemic waste and lack of accountability, even under a new board. They vow to keep exposing what they call “the rot” until the fund returns to its core mission: helping accident victims, not paying salaries for idle staff.
