Eskom’s statement on the reported irregularities
As part of their year-end audit, Eskom’s external auditors did raise two reportable
irregularities in terms of their professional obligations to the Independent Regulatory Board
of Auditors (IRBA). These related to Impulse International and the reinstatement of former
CEO Mr Brian Molefe.
In terms of the Audit Profession Act, the Board of Eskom had 30 days to take appropriate
steps to mitigate the risks identified after which the external auditor are then required to
report back to IRBA to confirm if the irregularities are continuing or not.
The Eskom’s Board has taken adequate steps to the satisfaction of the auditors that the
irregularities were no longer continuing except that in Mr Molefe's matter it was noted that
the irregularity could only be closed out when the court proceeding had been concluded.
