Competition Commission said to have failed to provide ‘recommendations with teeth’

The recommendations of the health market inquiry, released a week ago are problematic and need to be strengthened, the National Education Health and Allied Workers' Union says.

Nehawu’s policy head Sidney Kgara said: “The recommendations are problematic. They were disappointing at many levels. They are coming up with a lot of bureaucratic structures instead of trying to streamline the integration of the health-care system.” “In this regard, the Competition Commission itself has failed in its duty in allowing mergers and acquisitions of smaller hospitals by these monopoly giants more than the years.”
