In a statement released by the committee on 29 May co-chairperson of the committee Cyril Xaba said, “The unfortunate thing is that there seems to be a misalignment on progress status between Denel and Armscor. The committee has called upon all the parties involved to converge and agree on where the project is and what is the best possible way forward.”
