The speaker of the national assembly has received the names of members of parliament nominated by political parties to serve on the impeachment committee.
Political parties were required to submit their nominations by May 22.
Most parties met the deadline, except the African National Congress (ANC), which informed parliament that it would submit its list over the weekend.

The party has since provided its nominees.
Two parties, GOOD and Pan Africanist Congress (PAC), said they would not participate in the committee because each party has only one member of parliament who also serves in the executive.
The ANC nominated Mrs DE Mpapane, Mr X Nqola, Mr MS Lekganyane, Ms AF Muthambi, Mr CM Dugmore, Ms DR Direko, Mr BM Maneli, Mr MG Mahlaule, and Ms LS Makhubela, with Ms KJ Maimela listed as an alternate.
