Public protector Busisiwe Mkhwebane.
The independent panel, which had to determine whether there was a prima facie case for the removal of attorney Busisiwe Mkhwebane as Public Protector, recommended that Parliament initiate removal proceedings.
Last week, the Speaker of the National Assembly, Thandi Modise, received the report of the panel, Judge Bess Nkabinde, defender Dumisa Ntsebeza and defender Johan de Waal, but did not disclose the result.
In a statement on Monday, Parliament revealed that the panel had found that there was a prima facie case to initiate deportation proceedings against Mkhwebane.
The panel had to conduct a preliminary investigation and assess whether there was prima facie evidence to show that Mkhwebane was misbehaving, incapacitated or incompetent.
