`The fifth administration had taken a policy decision to put on hold
the employment of any foreign national doctors on the basis that
KwaZulu-Natal was faced with unemployed young doctors,` said
Simelane-Zulu.
`For the department to absorb or incorporate all the doctors in the
system, they had to make a decision to open up all the spaces that
were there.`
The MEC says the circular was not discussed or agreed upon by the
sixth administration.
`It must be taken by the MEC, but it must importantly the decision
must go through the Provincial Executive Council, which it has not.
As a result, we have instructed the HOD to withdraw the circular
until all relevant stakeholders have been consulted,` she said.
