Fall out between the minister and deputy minister of health, and president becoming involved in the saga. I would not be surprised if there is some linkage with the new saga re Madlala-Routledge's "unauthorised" trip to Spain over 2 months ago. The solution that govt has presented is to up the maintenance budget (and some other budgets) from R3.5m to R35m.
