Pretoria - The SAA business rescue process has cost taxpayers R200 million to date, with practitioners Les Mattison and Siviwe Dongwana pocketing a combined R59m despite failing to pay employees’ salaries and battling to turn around the embattled airline.

Mattison yesterday referred all enquiries to Dongwana, who failed to respond to calls and written questions sent via WhatsApp. Requesting anonymity for fear of retribution, they spoke of the lives they had to live without the salaries from SAA. She said the banks and private schools initially tried to understand their plight but eventually did what they were expected to do when people defaulted.

“Frustrated, I took him to the children’s court, thinking he was just being irresponsible, but there I learnt how he not only had no salary, but that the lack of overseas trips had dried up the surplus money he always had. His savings had gone into paying off his home and car, something the court understood and said was only fair.”
