LTA’s Chairman Vijay Maharaj says they have managed to get around 98% of declarations from their employees in relation to an investigation to establish whether they or their family members are holding PSV permits and licences.
He says the LTA management will soon look into all the declarations to see if the LTA employees or the former board members are holding the permits and licenses.
Aiyaz Sayed‑Khaiyum had written to Vijay Maharaj and Transport Minister Parveen Bala, in his capacity as the Minister responsible for Justice and Anti‑Corruption, to ensure that immediate action is taken regarding immediate family members of LTA employees and board members holding PSV permits and licences.
Sayed‑Khaiyum highlighted that a number of the PSV licences and permits were acquired by these employees and board members while holding office.
He also says that in a number of cases, the PSV permits and licenses were acquired in the name of immediate family members, namely spouse and children, for the benefit of these employees and board members.
