7. UPDATE ON THE EP RUGBY UNION
1. 14 July 2015 The Executive Council agrees that should the sponsorship monies as advised by Mr Cheeky Watson not be forthcoming in the very near future, an independent group of individuals would be appointed by SARU to oversee the administration of the affairs of the franchise. 2. 9 September 2015 The Executive Council notes that to date, the President of EPRU, Mr Cheeky Watson, has not complied by divulging the name of the potential sponsor for EP Rugby, nor confirming the amount that has allegedly been procured. The Executive Council further notes the ramifications of these actions and agrees to implement the earlier resolution taken on 14 July 2015, and impose a deadline of 30 September 2015 for Mr Watson to comply. 3. 17 November 2015 EPRU asks SA Rugby to assist by taking responsibility for the management of the Southern Kings
EP Kings PPC Briefing | April 2016
7. UPDATE ON THE EP RUGBY UNION
4. 9 December 2015 The Executive Council notes that sponsorship has failed to materialise and decides that it is imperative that it takes control of EP Rugby and that this decision is communicated to the union under clause 27.7 of the constitution: “Each member is a legal entity and SARU shall not have the authority to interfere in its affairs except where, in the Executive Council's opinion, there has been mismanagement of the administrative and/or financial affairs of a member, the executive council shall have the right to recommend to that member corrective measures in this regard, and if these measures are not implemented to take over the administrative and/or financial affairs of the member until these are restored to a satisfactory position). 5. However, giving effect to such an action is practicable only on the invitation – and therefore co- operation - of the member union.

KPMG REPORT ALLEGATIONS
SA Rugby sought a second round of expert legal opinion in the wake of renewed reporting of allegations against Jurie Roux. A news media group had been granted access to court papers which included a report compiled by KPMG in 2013. It is important to note there were not any new allegations. SA Rugby’s Executive Council approached Professor Michael Katz, of ENSafrica, to review SA Rugby’s handling of the matter and the relevant labour law on the basis of the evidence at hand. His review, in conjunciton with Advocate SA Cilliers SC, confirmed that SA Rugby’s Executive Council had appropriately applied its fiduciary duties. They also advised that it would be an unfair labour practice to take action against an employee on perceptions of third parties or on the basis of a report of which the facts have not been tested in court. They recommended that SA Rugby continued to employ Roux.
