Public trust in the health department

The Special Investigating Unit says its investigating new evidence that's come to light regarding the Digital Vibes debacle.

The report into the R150 million contract with the communications company was released yesterday. 

Today Health Minister Joe Phaahla confirmed that seven department officials have since been suspended.
